What's new in 1.20.0

• Support has been extended to include Android 9. • The message a server shows before login now appears above the password request, so you can read it before typing. • The keyboard no longer comes up by itself: each session keeps it as you left it, up or away, and it never appears over the lock screen. • Generated ed25519 keys are written exactly as ssh-keygen writes them. • On a television, the OK key opens the keyboard in the terminal.
