summary: PuTTY doesn't pass on the screen number in X11 forwarding class: bug: This is clearly an actual problem we want fixed. difficulty: fun: Just needs tuits, and not many of them. priority: medium: This should be fixed one day. present-in: 2002-12-31 fixed-in: 2003-01-03 368ead15bc3f85eba7dd1bfcf2ba5e014db9e463 (0.54)
When requesting X11 forwarding from an SSH server, PuTTY currently always
requests a default screen number of 0. This is less than optimal for users
of multiple-screen X servers, who might prefer a different default.
PuTTY should probably pull the screen number off the end of cfg.x11_display
and use that.
SGT, 2003-01-02: I think I've fixed this now.
