[LinuxUsers] puttycyg (PuTTY for Cygwin)

[Chris Penn]

Regular putty does not have this feature? copy paste... Sorry Im still
a bit confused.  Putty I know.  Why puttycyg?  If you are using
Cygwin, why not use cygwin bash shell, M$ power shell?

"SecureCRT is like PuTTY on steroids, and that's the kind of front end
that I ultimately prefer."

They are both clients.  If you ssh into a Linux box, its bash shell
from there.  On another note,  does does dante make secureCRT
(http://bit.ly/6TuX0E) ?
