How to use Putty with Console 2
by Awesome Geek in console, ssh 0
This post is meant for me to remember when I change my laptop again.
I love GNULinux but as I am currently working in 100% window only environment, I can’t let go of window yet. I love to do stuffs in Terminal. My choice of terminal in window is Console 2. I don’t want to use CygWin for no reason. I set up a folder for batch scripts and put in window’s path, so that from Console 2, I can do many common tasks. Such as poweroff, vim,curl, nmap, clear, ls, nc, etc.. . When It comes to ssh, I like Putty. Here is how to use putty in Console 2 via @jimueller.
The following is as it written in his blog.
But I don't want to make new tab just for each ssh profile, I make ssh.bat inside my batch folder and put this one in ssh.bat instead.

Instructions
- Download ANSICON (Github Repo) and extract the contents from the x86 or x64 folders to your Console2 installation folder.
I now have the following files in my C:\Program Files\Console2\ directory:- ANSI32.dll
- ANSI64.dll
- ansicon.exe
- ANSI-LLW.exe
- Open Console2 and create a new tab with the command line:
C:\Program Files\Console2\ansicon.exe "C:\Program Files (x86)\PuTTY\plink.exe" -load aPuttyProfileName
But I don't want to make new tab just for each ssh profile, I make ssh.bat inside my batch folder and put this one in ssh.bat instead.
@C:\Program Files\Console2\ansicon.exe "C:\Program Files (x86)\PuTTY\plink.exe" -load %*
So whenever i type
ssh myserverit will load my server instantly inside Console 2. Awesome!.
