Changes in SecureCRT 6.2 (Beta 1) -- January 29, 2009
-----------------------------------------------------

New features:

  - A native 64-bit Windows version is available.
  - Multiple sessions can be selected and edited from the Connect
    dialog.  Only the changed fields will be applied to the
    selected sessions, which allows specific settings to be
    changed for a group of sessions.
  - There is a new option to remember which sessions were open the
    last time SecureCRT ran so that they can be launched the next
    time the application runs.
  - Added an option to create a new log file at midnight, which
    can be used to do automatic log rotation.
  - Added support for creating folders when a log file path is
    specified that does not already exist, which allows parameter
    substitutions to be used in folder names for log file paths.
  - Added a command-line parameter /LOG, which allows a log file to
    be specified on the command line.
  - A blank password can be used to lock a session, which makes it
    easier to prevent accidental typing in sessions.
  - SSH2: Added support for PKCS#11, allowing a Cryptographic Token
    Interface to be used for smart-card authentication.
  - SSH2: In the Activator, agent support has been enhanced by
    allowing keys to be explicitly added and removed.
  - SFTP: Added support for recursive remove (rm -r).
  - SFTP: Added support for the flags -a and -d to the ls and lls
    commands.

Changes:

  - Empty cells are not stored in the scrollback buffer, which in
    most cases, significantly reduces the amount of memory used by
    a session.
  - The default Maximum columns setting has been increased to 256.
  - The default download, upload, and public key generation folders
    have been changed to "My Documents".  Under Vista, the default
    download folder is the user's Download folder.  Only new
    installations are affected.
  - When SecureCRT and SecureFX are integrated, if the SecureFX
    button on the SecureCRT toolbar is pressed and the current
    session does not have a valid file transfer protocol
    specified, a more informative message is displayed.
  - Serial: Added support for changing the baud rate of a connected
    session.
  - SSH1/SSH2: Added support for specifying a password in the
    Session Options dialog.
  - SSH1/SSH2:  When creating an identity file, moving the mouse is
    no longer required to generate random data.

Bug fixes:

  - A script that called crt.Close immediately after calling
    crt.Screen.Send could cause SecureCRT to crash.
  - Connecting multiple sessions in tabs from a script sometimes did
    not work correctly and some sessions hung or did not connect.
  - If the first tabbed session used the vt100 font, a session
    that used UTF-8 encoding could not be cloned.
  - The terminal dimensions were not updated when tabs were dragged
    between windows of different dimensions.
  - After exiting a session of vi that changed the foreground and
    background colors, the foreground and background colors were not
    restored correctly.
  - In some cases, the scrollbar was in the wrong position after
    switching between tabbed sessions.
  - When downloading a file that contained an illegal character
    such as ":" using Zmodem or Ymodem, the file name was truncated
    at the illegal character.  Illegal characters are now replaced
    with "_".
  - If a firewall was specified on the command line and the firewall
    name contained a space, it was not used.
  - If the "Auto Save Options" setting was off and a value was
    changed in the Global Options dialog, if the Global Options
    dialog was re-opened, the change was not reflected in the
    dialog.
  - SecureCRT had to be restarted in order for changes made to the
    Default session to be honored in Quick Connect.
  - If a session was deleted while it was connected, the session was
    added to the session database after it was disconnected.
  - If the "Retain size and font" option was set and the window was
    resized, under certain circumstances, some lines did not have
    the correct background color.
  - If a firewall failed to connect and the "Auto reconnect" option
    was set, a new firewall authentication dialog was displayed
    every second.
