- * sshsha.c and sshmd5.c cause a stack overflow in Apple's PowerPC C compiler 
-   unless optimisation is entirely disabled.

-Features we need (and aren't entirely obvious):
-
- * Scroll-conflation -- scroll_display should change the in-memory
-   display and remember the scroll, then do_scroll should be called
-   only when scroll_display gets called for a different rectangle or
-   term_paint happens.
+ * 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.
+
+Unimplemented features (should be done before release):
+
+ * TCP urgent data.
+ * Clipping host resize requests to screen size.
+ * Changing font size in reponse to resize requests.
+ * TEXT copy/paste.
+ * Catching up with current keyboard mapping in other ports.
+ * Session configuration.
+ * Filename abstraction (we want to use alias records).
+ * Host key database.
+ * Entropy collection.
+ * Private key files.
+ * Pageant and PuTTYgen.
+ * Apple Events.
+
+Wishlist (after release):
+ * SFTP client (GUI?)
+ * Carbon compatibility (requires Open Transport and Navigation Services).
+ * 'styl' copy (and paste, for script codes?).
