    Interesting. I just tried this:

      plink -load <sessionname> <hostname> ls

    expecting to see the output of the ls command. Instead, I got an
    interactive prompt. So it looks like maybe plink doesn't handle the
    command correctly when the -load option is used. Or maybe the "remote
    command" embedded in the saved session overrides the command passed to
    plink. At any rate, it doesn't work. I just tried it with
    TortoisePlink, and it doesn't work there either.

    I don't see any way to set up the proxy without using the saved
    session. There aren't any command line parameters for it.

    Simon usually listens to this group, so I'm sure he'll chime in if he
    feels he has anything to add.

    It looks like this is similar in nature to this bug posted on the
    PuTTY site:

    http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/putty/wishlist/cmdline-host-override.html

    ... so maybe you should report it to him anyway.

If something's already broken, does it really matter how many pieces it's in?
