+Information about PuTTY for the Mac OS
+-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=
+
+This is a port of PuTTY to the Classic Mac OS.  It is a work in
+progress and should be considered unfinished and insecure.  It is
+not considered to be of release quality, even if you found it (and
+you're reading this) in a PuTTY release source archive.  Unless you
+know what you're doing, don't use it.
+
+Compiling it:
+
+ See ../README for generic information.
+
+ To compile PuTTY for Mac OS you will need:
+
+ MPW
+  <ftp://ftp.apple.com/developer/Tool_Chest/Core_Mac_OS_Tools/MPW_etc./
+   MPW-GM_Images/MPW-GM.img.bin>
+  Install this in the usual way.
+
+ Universal Headers
+  <ftp://ftp.apple.com/developer/Development_Kits/
+   UniversalHeaders3.4.2.img.bin>
+  Install using the script in "Documentation:MPW Users - ReadMe".
+
+ Text Encoding Converter SDK
+  <ftp://ftp.apple.com/developer/Development_Kits/TEC_1.5.sit.hqx>
+  Copy contents of "68K Static Libraries" to
+   "Interfaces&Libraries:Libraries:Libraries".
+  Copy contents of "Stub Libraries" to
+   "Interfaces&Libraries:Libraries:SharedLibraries".
+
+ CarbonStdCLib.o
+  <ftp://ftp.apple.com/developer/Tool_Chest/Core_Mac_OS_Tools/
+   MPW_Website_Downloads/CarbonStdCLib.o-3.8d3.hqx>
+  Copy contents of "CIncludes" to
+   "Interfaces&Libraries:Interfaces:CIncludes".
+  Copy contents of "PPCLibraries" to
+   "Interfaces&Libraries:Libraries:PPCLibraries".
+
+ The "mkputty.mpw" script does all the work, and currently producess a
+ Classic 68K build of PuTTY called "PuTTY.68k", a non-Carbon PowerPC
+ build called "PuTTY.ppc", and similar builds of PuTTYtel called
+ "PuTTYtel.68k" and "PuTTYtel.ppc".  The CFM-68K build is currently
+ disabled because it overflows the global data space and I can't work
+ out how to stop this happening.  The Carbon build doesn't work yet.
+
+Runtime requirements:
+
+ The Classic 68K build of PuTTY should work on any Macintosh running
+ System 7.0 or later.  It runs in the Classic environment in Mac OS X.
+
+ The CFM-68K build of PuTTY should work on any Macintosh with a 68020,
+ 68030 or 68040 processor and with either the CFM-68K Runtime Enabler
+ or Mac OS 7.6.1 or later installed.
+
+ The PowerPC build of PuTTY should work on any Power Macintosh.  It
+ runs in the Classic environment in Mac OS X.
+
+ The Carbon build of PuTTY (when it works) should work on any Power
+ Macintosh with CarbonLib (and Mac OS 8.1 or later), Mac OS 9 or
+ Mac OS X installed.
+
+Known bugs:
+ * Display is far too slow.
+ * Real bold doesn't compensate for changing character widths without Color
+   QuickDraw. [MAYBE FIXED]
+ * When the last terminal window closes, the Edit menu doesn't get disabled
+   immediately, which it should.
+ * When using the "VT100" font, text copied to the clipboard doesn't
+   get newlines in it, because that font has a graphic character at
+   position 0x0d.  Even if we did insert 0x0d manually, TextEdit
+   insists on displaying the graphic version, so I think we need a
+   font switch at this point.  This can be seen as a special case of
+   the need to switch fonts to get odd characters.
+ * Pasting large blocks of text doesn't work.
+ * The host key database is currently limited by its implementation to
+   2727 host keys.
+
+Unimplemented features (should be done before release):
+ * TCP urgent data.
+ * Listening sockets.
+ * Changing font size in reponse to resize requests.
+ * Full screen mode.
+ * Session configuration. 
+ * Entropy collection.
+ * Private key files.
+ * Pageant and PuTTYgen.
+ * Do something with Open Application Apple Events.
+ * Close-on-exit.
+ * Warn-on-quit.
+ * Non-block cursors.
+
+Wishlist (after release):
+ * SFTP client (GUI?)
+ * Carbon compatibility (requires Open Transport and Navigation Services).
+ * 'styl' paste, for script codes.
+ * Handle 'gurl' Apple Events.
