What does that have to do with anything? PuTTY is not windows-exclusive.
2 comments

Putty on linux has been very useful to me several times, when preparing screenshots for documentation for windows users.
What are the benefits of using PuTTY over plain ssh in a *NIX environment?
Putty has nice nethack support.
You can also run nethack under 'cp437' (https://github.com/keaston/cp437) to use the IBMGraphics option on a UTF-8 terminal like gnome-terminal.
