(You can adjust precisely what PuTTY considers to be part of a word see section 4.12.1.) If you triple-click, or triple-click and drag, then PuTTY will select a whole line or sequence of lines. If you double-click, hold down the second click, and drag the mouse, PuTTY will select a sequence of whole words. If you double-click the left mouse button, PuTTY will select a whole word. (Some remote applications can ask PuTTY to identify text that is being pasted, to avoid this sort of problem but if your application does not, there is nothing PuTTY can do to avoid this.)

By default, this behaves exactly as if the clipboard contents had been typed at the keyboard therefore, be careful of pasting formatted text into an editor that does automatic indenting, as you may find that the spaces pasted from the clipboard plus the spaces added by the editor add up to too many spaces and ruin the formatting.

(Pressing Shift-Ins, or selecting ‘Paste’ from the Ctrl+right-click context menu, have the same effect.) When you click the right mouse button, PuTTY will read whatever is in the Windows clipboard and paste it into your session. Pasting into PuTTY is done using the right button (or the middle mouse button, if you have a three-button mouse and have set it up see section 4.11.1). You do not need to press Ctrl-C or Ctrl-Ins in fact, if you do press Ctrl-C, PuTTY will send a Ctrl-C character down your session to the server where it will probably cause a process to be interrupted. When you let go of the button, the text is automatically copied to the clipboard. (This will be familiar to people who have used xterm on Unix.) In order to copy text to the clipboard, you just click the left mouse button in the terminal window, and drag to select text. Also, copy and paste uses the Windows clipboard, so that you can paste (for example) URLs into a web browser, or paste from a word processor or spreadsheet into your terminal session.īy default, PuTTY's copy and paste works entirely with the mouse. Like most other terminal emulators, PuTTY allows you to copy and paste the text rather than having to type it again. Often in a PuTTY session you will find text on your terminal screen which you want to type in again. Nevertheless, there are a few more useful features available.

Once you have worked your way through that and started a session, things should be reasonably simple after that. For extreme detail and reference purposes, chapter 4 is likely to contain more information.Ī lot of PuTTY's complexity and features are in the configuration panel. This chapter provides a general introduction to some more advanced features of PuTTY. 3.11.1 Starting a session from the command line.3.10 Connecting using the SUPDUP protocol.3.9 Connecting using the Rlogin protocol.3.8 Connecting using the Telnet protocol.
