\S{faq-
meaning
}{Question}
What does \q{PuTTY} mean
?
Exactly like the normal word \q{putty}. Just like the stuff you put
on window frames. (One of the reasons it's called PuTTY is because
it makes Windows usable. :-)
It's the name of a popular SSH and Telnet client. Any other meaning
is in the eye of the beholder. It's been rumoured that \q{PuTTY}
is the antonym of \q{\cw{getty}}, or that it's the stuff that makes your
Windows useful, or that it's a kind of plutonium Teletype. We
couldn't possibly comment on such allegations.
\S{faq-pronounce}{Question} How do I pronounce \q{PuTTY}?
Exactly like the English word \q{putty}, which we pronounce
/\u02C8{'}p\u028C{V}t\u026A{I}/.
