In the plink_cvsnt.c - plink_connect() function there is the code:
inhandle = GetStdHandle(STD_INPUT_HANDLE);
outhandle = GetStdHandle(STD_OUTPUT_HANDLE);
errhandle = GetStdHandle(STD_ERROR_HANDLE);
GetConsoleMode(inhandle, &orig_console_mode);
SetConsoleMode(inhandle, ENABLE_PROCESSED_INPUT);
and the comment
/*
* Turn off ECHO and LINE input modes. We don't care if this
* call fails, because we know we aren't necessarily running in
* a console.
*/
It was needed in original putty code, but CVSNT does not send stdin directly
to server, so ssh protocol implementation should not touch stdin at all.
