Putty's Buddy

The "pbuddy" is an application sends saved commands to the Putty. This is handy for embedded system developers who use the same commands multiple times over the projects. For instance, if you need to type kernel image loading commands every time your embedded system reboots, you may copy and paste the commands manually. The pbuddy automates this process, so that you just need to click a button to transmit saved commands to putty.
