+This is a port of PuTTY to the Classic Mac OS.  It is a work in
+progress and should be considered unfinished and insecure.  It is
+not considered to be of release quality, even if you found it (and
+you're reading this) in a PuTTY release source archive.  Unless you
+know what you're doing, don't use it.

 Known bugs:

- * PowerPC and fat versions fail to start on systems without AppearanceLib (ie
-   most System 7 ones).  The 68k version works fine. [MAYBE FIXED]

  * Display is far too slow.

    QuickDraw. [MAYBE FIXED]

- * Compiling ssh.c using SC 8.8.4 with "-opt time" causes SSH1
-   connections to fail with "Incorrect CRC received on packet".  Using
-   "-opt none" works around this.

  * When the last terminal window closes, the Edit menu doesn't get disabled
    immediately, which it should.

+ * When using the "VT100" font, text copied to the clipboard doesn't
+   get newlines in it, because that font has a graphic character at
+   position 0x0d.  Even if we did insert 0x0d manually, TextEdit
+   insists on displaying the graphic version, so I think we need a
+   font switch at this point.  This can be seen as a special case of

+ * The host key database is currently limited by its implementation to
+   2727 host keys.
