I'm aware of this. I haven't done it yet, because I'm still thinking
about how to exploit plinkx at best. One option would be to allow
_only_ PuTTY sessions here, i.e. calling "plink -load sessionname"
(instead of hostname). Consequently, auto-completion would need to
read PuTTY session names from the Windows registry - a new function.

What about (setenv "PATH" ...) in your .emacs?

Don't know yet. I need playing :-)
