I use the shit out of putty (and winSCP) I'm a GUI gimp, I will own that. Is there any better set of tools for the windows environment? Not Complaining at all, or looking to change, I get a ton done with these two applications, just curious if there are even better solutions

mobaXterm Takes some tweaking and some hiding of some of the clutter, but it's got sane font handling / hint / antialiasing, multi-window / multi-exec support, and supports some aliases. Also gives you package support for gnu utilities, among other things. On Wed, May 3, 2017 at 9:41 PM, Steve Jo

One note I will add is make sure to turn off the "show scp/sftp window by default" or whatever the setting is. It's nice to have and keep running, I just hate it popping up every time I connect to a server. I can still click on the item in the side window to use it though. On Wed, May 3, 2017 at 9

I frequently use Putty because it's fast and I'm used to it. I use WinSCP because it's very user friendly for SCP/SFTP. I also use Tera Term. Especially for serial console. For whatever reason, Putty constantly crashes when doing serial. The nice thing with Tera Term is built-in SCP. You're w

mobaxterm supports it's own agent or can use pageant. It has built in SCP/WINSCP with drag and drop support. It's the most comprehensive terminal application I've found, by far. On Wed, May 3, 2017 at 10:35 PM, George Skorup wrote: > I frequently use Putty because it's fast and I'm used to it. >
