depp.jones,

Thanks for packaging KiTTY! Would it be possible to have all of its supporting binaries included in its PortableApp package? If you install the PortableApp package for PuTTY and look in the App\putty directory, you can see that App\KiTTY should likewise have: kageant.exe, kittygen.exe, kitty.exe, klink.exe, kscp.exe, and ksftp.exe.

Are you actually using any of these? I could include them on demand and maybe you (or some other interested people) could test them. Please open a new thread in the Internet apps support forum so we could discuss it there.

Sidenote: kitty.exe is not included, instead the kitty_portable.exe, precompiled for portable mode. There are some other supporting file for KiTTY that use its extended feature set. I did not include any of these because I had no use for it in my own portable setup - they are usually launched from command line or separately - and the possible portability issues. Only kscp.exe was added because of some other users demand and its direct access from the UI.
KiTTY was not the best documented app some years ago but it is getting way better. Wink
