Show existing PuTTY registry sessions without needing to import them #150

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 9 years ago

Could we have Superputty automatically detect and display existing PuTTY 
sessions from the registry in a separate root tree or tab in the Sessions 
panel? Doing so will reflect in Superputty the current registry sessions 
without having to import them all the time.

To simplify things such sessions could be "connect only", without the ability 
to edit them.

I see two ways to import a recently created putty session to superputty:

1) Per-session import:
- Right-click on an appropriate folder where you want your new putty session to 
be
- Select 'New'
- Enter a 'Session Name'
- Select your recently created 'PuTTY Session Profile' -- they are loaded 
directly from registry here

2) Full import: delete all imported sessions and reimport them.

However, I too find it awkward to have to do this at all. I would much prefer 
to have the putty sessions loaded automatically and perhaps on manual refresh 
(context menu option, for example, like mtputty). Note that anything more 
complicated than a hostname and port requires the usage of putty profiles, so I 
believe this is a common task.

I think a dedicated folder for automatically synchronized sessions is the way 
to go here (like mtputty).
