PuTTY: The open source SSH and Telnet client
Most readers will be familiar with PuTTY, the free
SSH and Telnet client (with included xterm emulator). Indeed, it's the SSH client of choice for many, particularly
those using Windows. You might not be aware it's open source, however.
PuTTY is licenced under the MIT licence, a BSD style licence which is compatible with the GPL. If you're developing
software that requires Telnet, SFTP, SSH, or SSH authentication clients, the source is worth checking out, and it's
available via Subversion. You can use the source in any way you see fit, as long as you retain the copyright notice.

Carry your PortaPuTTY with you
Now this is way cool, & it's a great example of innovation in the open source area. You've probably heard of
PuTTY, the open source & free SSH terminal for Windows. Now there's PortaPuTTY, which is PuTTY hacked so that nothing goes in the registry,
meaning you can keep a copy on a USB flash drive and use it with any machine. Now that, my friends, is pretty kick ass.
That is definitely going on my USB flash drive!
