"SSH2" protocol is implemented in a bad way #618

Hello! I'm glad with "SuperPutty" but I've a question:

Why "SSH2" is included as a protocol if Putty needs "-2" parameter to reconigse it? From Putty documentation:

3.8.1 Starting a session from the command line

   These options allow you to bypass the configuration window and
   launch straight into a session.

   To start a connection to a server called `host':

     putty.exe [-ssh | -telnet | -rlogin | -raw] [user@]host

If you want to use SSH2 you must inform to Putty/KiTTY by using "-2" parameter.

Not sure what you mean, if you setup a putty profile and set Connection->SSH->2 Only 'on', then tell superputty to use that profile, it should use ssh2 by default. have you actually tested it and confirmed it?

But "Quick conenction toolbar" is usefull for this: do quick connections without setuping profiles! You're have a list where "SSH2" can be selectable while it's false: using your words "a session is needed".
