PageantBridge is a proxy wrapper (on standard streams stdin/stdout) for pageant/putty messaging protocol (based on memorymap & winapi SendMessage/Postmessage)
I wanted to create an alternative to ssh-agent / pageant (see nwagent).
Spawn pageantbridge.exe (make sure that its stdin is redirected) This creates a window (not shown) using Windows API registered as Pageant class.
See ssh-agent-js/agentd for usage sample
Incoming request are forwarded to pageantbridge.exe stdout. Once processed, provide a response to pageantbridge.exe stdin.
