You have a working binary for PuTTY on OS X? I'm forced to use

I heard recently that PuTTY had been ported to OS X. There seems to
be no point at all to this.
Open a Terminal, type "ssh <hostname>"...what's so tough about that?
It works fine.
Terminal.app doesn't provide a shiny GUI to connect to physical serial ports. ;)
Well I guess if people "need" that sort of thing...but then, I
respectfully submit that those are the types of people who aren't afraid
of the keyboard.
(yes, I know GNU screen can do it too. I agree it seems fairly pointless.)
Yes. And if memory serves, screen ships with OS X by default.
