Hi,

This is horribly off-topic, but I thought it might strike a chord with 
some people here.

While I wait for an excuse to splurge lots of (largely worthless, New 
Zealand) dollars on portable mass storage for my Clio, I make real use 
of the HPC every day. I don't have a PC at home, or carry a laptop as 
I travel around the place, and the clio + wavelan or clio + GSM 
handset combination does me very nicely. The crippling grip of CE 
means it takes ages to do most things, but it's almost entirely 
tolerable. Almost. The one thing I am missing is an ssh client.

Whenever I have to suffer the indignity of touching a win98 box, I 
mitigate the cerebral damage involved by using PuTTY, a free windows 
ssh implementation. It's a lovely small, clean bit of code. It's 
available for download (source plus intel/alpha win32 binaries) here:

http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/putty/download.html

So, here's the reason for this e-mail: this list contains people who 
have access to a CE development environment, and suitable 
windows-based machines to run it on. If any of you have a spare hour 
and fancy porting Simon Tatham's PuTTY to CE/mips, I would be an 
extremely happy tester :)

[pathetic, unreasonable and off-topic request ends]


Joe
