Description

KiTTY is a derivative of version 0.76 of the renowned telnet/SSH client PuTTY, specifically tailored for the Microsoft® Windows® operating system. For those seeking more details on the original software or pre-compiled binaries for different platforms, the Simon Tatham PuTTY page serves as a valuable resource. KiTTY retains all the essential features of its predecessor while introducing a variety of additional functionalities that are outlined on its website. Users can explore traditional features and verify their operational status, such as auto-command, auto-password, auto-reconnect, transparency, port knocking, hyperlinking, printing from the clipboard, an embedded launcher, as well as unique offerings from TuTTY and RuTTY. Furthermore, it includes the PuTTYCrypt patch for credential retrieval from certificates, the PuTTYCyg tool for integrating a Cygwin terminal into KiTTY, and Zmodem support for file transfers using the ZModem protocol. Notably, the Covidimus patch allows for the incorporation of a background image, and there has been a significant advancement in settings management, with a nearly complete rewrite of the SSH core and essential Windows functions. Overall, KiTTY represents a comprehensive enhancement over the original PuTTY client, catering specifically to the needs of Windows users.

Description

The application allows for minimizing to the system tray through various methods such as CTRL + minimize, at startup, or always, and features customizable icons. It notifies users with a blinking tray icon upon receiving a bell signal and includes configurable window transparency options. Users can enjoy URL hyperlinking, portability, and the ability to store session configurations in files, enabling use on devices like USB drives, similar to portaPuTTY. The 'always on top' feature is easily accessible through the system menu, and there is support for Android ADB. Additionally, sessions can be loaded from files via the command line, and the software automatically selects 'sessions from file' in the absence of registry-stored sessions. It is now built on PuTTY 0.61, incorporating enhancements such as Windows 7 Jumplist and Aero support. The executables have been signed to alleviate Internet Explorer's concerns, all without necessitating code changes. A new URLs submenu has been introduced for improved keyboard access, while ensuring compatibility with older computers. The application benefits from a code signing certificate and timestamping, eliminating previous certificate errors. Initially compiled by Barry Haanstra, the project is now under the stewardship of Chris West (Faux), ensuring ongoing maintenance and improvements to the software. The evolution of this tool highlights a commitment to enhancing user experience and accessibility across various platforms.
