Workaround OpenSSL freeze

Raw

Windows OpenSSL Bug

On windows certain OpenSSL versions seem to hang indefinitely on any command. This can be circumvented by prepending winpty before each command.

Hangs idenfinitely

openssl rsa -in .ssh/in.pem -out out.pem

Runs without a problem

winpty openssl rsa -in .ssh/in.pem -out out.pem
