We are now working on version 9.0 of Putty for Mac and have once again made significant progress the last couple of weeks. Now GTK accelerator buttons are working properly (Paste, New Window and Quit). We will once again sync to latest putty git sources for the pending release. We continue to test pageant, puttygen and plink to be sure that everything is working 100% correctly and as expected. Version 9.0 should be released in the next couple months, until then here is some screenshots.
