To compile C++ files remotely using SSH in a school lab, an SSH client is necessary. PuTTY is recommended for Windows XP users, as it supports SSH tunneling and can be run from a flash drive, making it portable for use on different computers. Additionally, WinSCP and FileZilla are suggested for secure file transfers. The latest version of PuTTY, 0.59, was released on January 24, 2007.

I would like to use SSH to compile my C++ files remotely in my school's lab. I have never done this before, but I understand that I need an SSH client.
So I looked at these:

I am on Windows XP. Is there one you would recommend?
thanks.

(and you can run it off a flash drive, in case you have to use another computer).
PuTTy also supports ssh tunneling.
UPDATE: 2007-01-24 PuTTY 0.59 is released!

..and I use WinSCP and FileZilla for secure file transfers.
