My current Exceed is version 7.0, and it has a small and annoying bug
(maybe it is not a bug, but all the technical support at my workplace
tried to make it work like it worked until version 6.0, and could not):

Several fonts went missing. Even after the fonts were added in the proper
place, Exceed no longer recognized them. In particular, Exceed gave emacs
non-fixed width fonts, when emacs asked for itallic fixed width.

Seems small, but it means that when I commented out code (and used an
itallic style for that) the length of the line changed significantly. This
resulted in me first abandoning itallic fonts, and soon after abandoning
Exceed altogether.

Long live putty! :)

Orna.
