i cant tell you now what iam thinking , but my personal belief in
programming , there is always more than one solution,
but some ones are very very bad , but i will do my best with you to
understand the PuTTY architecture and made it .

yes you got it , :-) "once we have something working" that is the driving
rule for any succeful SoftWare all over the history of programming.
