But my concern is that I wasn't aware that darcs *does* require putty--that's precisely the question I was asking. My impression was that darcs works fine with mingw openssh. I don't want to force users of mingw openssh to rename their openssh scp.exe to pscp.exe. That would be silly. -- David Roundy http://www.darcs.net _______________________________________________ darcs-devel mailing list [email protected] http://www.abridgegame.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/darcs-devel
