Installation Requirements- PuTTY. This has been tested with PuTTY v0.68
- .NET Framework 2.0. The windows installer will check your system for the correct version of the framework. It will then prompt you to download and install it, if you don't already have it. Alternatively, download it from Microsoft, and use the zip file for the binaries.
- This was originally developed on Windows XP Professional, which should still work but I can no longer test on it. I now use Windows 10, however from Windows Vista up the session hotkeys (Win 1-9,0 ) have been taken for the system quick launch applications. Update 29-06-2008: This is now addressed in v0.31 - which allows you to choose an alternative modifier (Ctrl+Alt) for hotkeys.
Binaries: PSM is available in a windows installer or a zip file. All
downloads can be found on the
Sourceforge download page.
