 INSTALLATION:
    Just extract the mindterm_install.zip into c:\Progra~1 and 
    it should work fine on English, French, Italian and German 
    versions on Windows NT/2000/XP.
    This will create a subdir "mindterm" under which all tools
    are stored.

  SSH tools in this bundle:
   - mindterm:   My favourite, for historical reasons and due to
                 features such as "clone terminal".
   - putty:      Lovely SSH client which also has Telnet support.
   - pscp, psftp: Putty's command-line file transfer
   - plink:      Putty's command-line ssh
   - pageant:    Putty's ssh-agent
   - winscp:     nice SSH file transfer GUI (to replace your ftp client)
   - iexplorer:  nice SSH file transfer GUI, newer versions are
                 no longer free, they are shareware.
   - QuickPutty: a quick lauch for putty

 Mindterm is started by clicking on mindterm.bat in c:\Progra~1\mindterm.

 For putty, click on pageant to start the taskbar icon which gives quick 
   access to putty, and key agent. To use the command line tools like
   plink, add c:\Progra~1\mindterm to the PATH.

 Tips: Enable compression over slow links. Use only protocol V2. 
       Blowfish is a fast but strong encryption algorithm, recommended.
