-it probably \e{hasn't} been implemented.

\S{faq-ssh2}{Question} Does PuTTY support SSH v2?
There isn't one, that we know of.
-If someone else wants to set up a mailing list for PuTTY users to
-help each other with common problems, that would be fine with us;
-but the PuTTY team would almost certainly not have the time to read
-it, so any questions the list couldn't answer would have to be
-forwarded on to us by the questioner. In any case, it's probably
-better to use the established newsgroup \cw{comp.security.ssh} for
-this purpose.

-\S{faq-pronounce}{Question} How do I pronounce PuTTY?
+\S{faq-meaning}{Question} What does \q{PuTTY} mean?
-Exactly like the normal word \q{putty}. Just like the stuff you put
-on window frames. (One of the reasons it's called PuTTY is because
-it makes Windows usable. :-)
+It's the name of a popular SSH and Telnet client. Any other meaning
+is in the eye of the beholder. It's been rumoured that \q{PuTTY}
+is the antonym of \q{\cw{getty}}, or that it's the stuff that makes your
+Windows useful, or that it's a kind of plutonium Teletype. We
+couldn't possibly comment on such allegations.

+\S{faq-pronounce}{Question} How do I pronounce \q{PuTTY}?
+
+Exactly like the English word \q{putty}, which we pronounce
+/\u02C8{'}p\u028C{V}t\u026A{I}/.
