## What is KiTTY ?

KiTTY is a fork from version 0.76 of **PuTTY**, the best telnet / SSH client in the world.

KiTTY is only designed for the Microsoft(c) Windows(c) platform. For more information about the original software, or pre-compiled binaries on other systems, you can go to the [Simon Tatham PuTTY page](http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/putty/ "PuTTY").

## How to compile

Inside your MSYS & MinGW32 environment jump into the x.yy_My_PuTTY\windows directory then run the command:

    make -f MAKEFILE.MINGW putty.exe

### How to install the MSYS/MinGW32 environment

Simple guide to setup the compile environment:

- Download the `mingw-builds-install.exe` from https://sourceforge.net/projects/mingwbuilds/files/host-windows/releases/4.8.0/32-bit/

- Execute the installer and select the **GUI**.

- After installing it, only the "packager manager" it's in fact installed, so execute `$MinGW\libexec\mingw-get\guimain.exe` and select in the Basic Setup the packages: **"mingwg-developer-tools", "mingw32-base", "mingw32-gcc-g++" and "msys-base"**.

- When all is installed, to open the SHELL execute `$MinGW\msys\1.0\msys.bat`. Then from from this shell you can compile. Example: `cd $KiTTY_DIR/0.74_My_PuTTY/windows` and `make -f MAKEFILE.MINGW 9bis`.
