Hi Eric!
I've detected that black Putty screen doeesn't get focus when mouse clicks on it. To put on foreground is needed to click on main SmartPutty window. Nowaday Putty screen gets focus.

Is there some way to read Putty events a make SmartPutty on foreground?

Thanks!

It would be very handy to have a menu (somewhere near Configuration or Application) to have a list of available connections, something like the following:

Connections:
Folder 1:
Connection 1 name
Connection 2 name
Folder 2:
etc...

This way all of the connections are easy to access and sorted nicely. This should work for not only the Putty connections read from the registry but any custom connections that I have added to the program. One thing is that each connection should have a "name" variable associated to it, to give it a human readable name, like "Linux Host Machine".

Hi Eric!
This is Carlos SS testing your first version. :-)

I've detected startup BAT script "start.bat" shows so many debug information (including SSH passwords).
Is possible:

• rename current "start.bat" to "start_debug.bat"
• create "start.bat" with this contents:
  java -splash:icon/splash.jpg -jar SmartPutty.jar
  ?

This will give to SmartPutty a more professional image, without lots of debug.

Thanks!

Hi Eric:
What do you think about adding a compiled SmartPutty.jar to your repository folder?

This is due many people doesn't have Gradle or JDK installed, and this can be a fast way to these people to check your great program.

P.D.:
Perhaps an "SmartPutty.exe" will be faster and easy to use this program.

Hello Eric!
Is possible to move "icons" folder inside JAR file?
Doing this we can be sure that all icons are present and we'll fewer problems due user-deleted icons.

Hello Eric!
Since many times running SmartPutty I've detected "Welcome Page" tab isn't needed more (use instructions are easy and knowned for any user). After several times It's nice begin SmartPutty in a clean way.

What do you think about setting another configuration to hide it?
Perhaps, adding a new check item called "Show Welcome Page on start" under "View"?

Hi All,

To run a script, I understand Smartputty supports a way, wherein user has to open "Script Editor", in the subsequent window browse and select the script file and then hit Enter.

As like in Mobaxterm and SecureCRT, is there a way where we have all the above steps in button/clickable parmeter..So once I click the button it fetches the command from the file and executes.. This will be good option to run repeated commands.

Hi Eric!
I'll like to have a window to define which programs to use Putty/KiTTY, WinScp/Filezilla, etc., and save this values on configuration file

What do you think? Can I try it?

Hello Eric!
Seem "commons-net-1.2.2.jar" library is not needed ("dev" branch).

Please, can you check-it and delete-it?

Thanks!

A handy shortcut that I use in many tabbed programs (such as Firefox) is using my middle mouse button to close tabs, though on a trackpad, double clicking to close tabs is easier to perform, so I frequently use both shortcuts. It would be great if that could be implemented here.

Hi Eric!
Can I implement saving of main window size in configuration? Many people works with special sizes (having window on top of screen, or down) and I think will be usefull to save this size for future executions.

Hi another time Eric:
I've detected Gradle "build and compile" process is creating a unused file called SmartPutty.tar next to SmartPutty.zip file.
Due your program isn't intended to run on Linux (where TAR is a common compacter program), I want to suggest to you remove creation of this file (and reduce compilation time).

To do some I want to suggest to use in build.gradle this directive:
distTar.enabled = false

And also I want to stabilize more this compilation process by adding this another file settings.gradle, with this content:
rootProject.name = 'SmartPutty'

This will avoid SmartPutty.zip get another name based on which directory are files of SmartPutty (I work with several directories, and my current is called SmartPutty_git, which is doing I'm getting a SmartPutty_git.zip compressed file.
gradle.zip

Hello Eric:
I'm following your past advice to work with with Gradle. Now I've accomplished on my Netbeans 8 IDE, but I've modified my build.gradle file to add two entries to solve builds.

These new lines are:
apply plugin: 'application'
mainClassName = 'UI.MainFrame'

and "Build and Compile" from command line continues working well.

Can you easy my life and add them to repository? ;-)
Thanks!

Hi!
Is possible to add close capability to new lower toolbar? Many screens are litle and this toolbar is taking space.
Or also, can you offer a emerging toolbar(raising up when mouse pointer is near him, and auto-hidding)?

Personally I don't need it.

(Feel free to close this issue when done)

Hello Eric!
I've checked out "dev" branch and I've detected "Hostname" and "Protocol" fields has dissapeared on upper bar.
Can you re-add it?

(Feel free to close this issue when done)

Good morning Eric!
Can we add full support to run SmartPutty on Windows x64? It's meaning to use x64 JAR's and lib's, etc.

(Feel free to close this issue when done)

It would be very handy if tabs could be dragged and dropped to rearrange them, similar to how other tabbed programs work.

Hi Eric!
It's possible to create a "database" folder on root and move into database related files?
With this will add to be more esy to maintain files.

You'll need my "DBManager.java" class to manage in a good way.

Thanks!

Hello Eric!
Is possibel to replace internal proprietary API "Base64Util" class with "Apache Commons Codec API"?
I think you like "Apache API's" (well done!) and "Apache Commons Codec API" seems a good alternative to remove compillation warnings like:

SmartPutty\src\Dao\Base64Util.java:3: warning: BASE64Decoder is internal proprietary API and may be removed in a future release
import sun.misc.BASE64Decoder;

With this our code will be more stronger.

(Feel free to close when done)

Hello Eric!
Is possible to no overwrite "Default%20Settings" Putty session with some values?
I've offered few weeks ago a new session name to work called "SmartPutty_Settings".

I've offered this alternative session because several users are using this session name with very specialized settings that will be overwrited.

Hello Eric!
Is possible to remove unused JAR libraries? Seems that following libraries are no longer used:

• org.eclipse.core.commands_3.6.1.v20120521-2329.jar
• org.eclipse.equinox.common_3.6.100.v20120522-1841.jar
• org.eclipse.ui.forms_3.5.200.v20120521-2329.jar

Thanks in advance!

Hello Eric!
Can you change GiHub title from:
Multi Tabbed Putty
to a more descriptive name like:
Multi Tabbed Putty wrote in Java
?
I think can add more people interested on this great project.

Hi Eric:
We've a great issue: images have been dissapeared from main page (https://github.com/ericmore/SmartPutty), and from wiki pages.

Please, can you try to find and restore it? We're losing hundred of clients every day :-)

Thanks!

One shortcut I often find very useful is the ability to change tabs with only the keyboard and personally, I find ALT plus a number very easy as I can do it quickly with only my left hand. For example, ALT+1 would go to tab 1, ALT+2 would go to tab 2, ALT+3 would go to tab 3, and so forth. I also like shortcuts like ALT+W to duplicate the current tab and ALT+Q to close to the current tab, as they are all close together.

Please consider implementing some sort of customizable shortcuts like the above for tab navigation.

Hi Eric!
This is Carlos another time :-D How are you? So many time from last collaborations!!

I have a simple question: is possible to remove Gradle support on this project? Main reason is that is so many difficult to use Gradle on another IDE's (like NetBeans). Yesterday I've accomplished to work on NetBeans, but this can be an stopper to work on this project for another people.

I consider we must keep simple things. What do you think?

Hello!
Is possible to add a version number to SmartPutty (in title bar, in welcome page, etc.)?

This will add users to known in which version we are, and will track our archivements.

Hi Eric:
I've another mistake due Gradle. My workstation is 32 bits, and I can't compile your program due Gradle it's configured to use only 64 bits version of SWT library.

To get my compilation to work I used this line (on build.gradle file):
compile group: 'org.eclipse.swt', name: 'org.eclipse.swt.win32.win32.x86', version: '4.3'
instead of:
compile group: 'org.eclipse.swt', name: 'org.eclipse.swt.win32.win32.x86_64', version: '4.3'

P.D.:
I found this piece of Gradle code which can help to detect architecture, but I don't known how to implement:

model {
    platforms {
        x86 {
            architecture "x86"
        }
        x64 {
            architecture "x86_64"
        }
    }
}
model {
    components {
        main(NativeLibrarySpec) {
            targetPlatform "x86"
            targetPlatform "x64"
        }
    }
}
