Host source code on Github

Hi, thanks for your efforts on this project. Would you consider hosting source code and issue tracker on github for public contribution? I think this will attract a lot more attention to the project. Thanks.

Was searching for the sources as well, but only found the tarball. Would be great if this is hosted on github! :-D +1

I've done just that, and I will try to keep in sync with the source release tarballs of KiTTY and pulling in changes from PuTTY trunk as well.
Here's the latest KiTTY. I've taken the liberty to merge the latest sources of putty, which give us some upcoming features from PuTTY 0.64pre, like connection sharing between tools and multiple sessions. Separated into 3 projects, for now, only compiles under Visual Studio 2013 (which is since recently available for a free download), project directory included.

https://github.com/niieani/kitty-remix - kitty main folder (includes the below as submodules)
https://github.com/niieani/putty - latest putty with kitty ported in (quite a few hours of work)
https://github.com/niieani/putty-vs2013 - visual studio project for kitty

Hoping for contributions. I've already added my own fix for one connection error MessageBox.

Thanks, works like a charm, needed a bit of fiddling though:

Install Visual Studio 2013
http://download.microsoft.com/download/7/1/B/71BA74D8-B9A0-4E6C-9159-A8335D54437E/vs_community.exe

Download
https://codeload.github.com/niieani/putty-vs2013/zip/kitty-upstream
https://codeload.github.com/niieani/kitty-remix/zip/vs2013
https://codeload.github.com/niieani/putty/zip/kitty-upstream

Extract
unzip kitty-remix-vs2013.zip
unzip putty-kitty-upstream.zip -d kitty-remix-vs2013
unzip putty-vs2013-kitty-upstream.zip -d kitty-remix-vs2013\putty-kitty-upstream\windows

Load kitty-remix-vs2013\putty-kitty-upstream\windows\putty-vs2013-kitty-upstream\putty.sln in Visual Studio

Solution -> Properties -> Configuration Manager -> Active solution configuration: Release

Build Solution (F7)

Find .exe files under kitty-remix-vs2013\putty-kitty-upstream\windows\putty-vs2013-kitty-upstream\*\Release\

By default the version info isn't set correctly though, trying to tweak it via VS in pageant.rc makes it not compile due to some DS_FONT or somesuch error, no biggie.

A patch I applied for myself: Supporting key usage confirmation in PuTTY's pageant http://people.mpi-inf.mpg.de/~pcernko/pageant.html

@rat
There's an easier way. You don't need to unzip each kitty element, just install git and then run:

git clone --recursive https://github.com/niieani/kitty-remix.git

It will clone everything where it should be.
Version info isn't set correctly, that's true. I left it out on purpose for now.
Perhaps you'd want to fork the appropriate project on GitHub and make a pull request for your patch?

Enjoy Christmas

It may be worth noting that the kitty download page ( http://www.9bis.net/kitty/?page=Download ) now has links to the official "release" svn.

putty.sln are not found
The Directory putty/Windows/VS2013 is empty
