You need - root privileges, or at least be in the "tty" group, because - it reads /dev/vcsN and writes /dev/ttyN. - It follows the same idea as WinVNC, x11vnc or OSXvnc, i.e. it - takes an existing desktop and exports it via RFB (VNC), just that - LinuxVNC exports text. - -VNCommand <command> <args> - executes <command> redirecting stdin from a vncviewer and stdout & - stderr to the vnc clients. This might be renamed to vncTerm if - there are some term capabilities added (up to now, bash doesn't look - nice). Colours and other ANSI sequences need to be added. - -My original plan was to create a program named vncTerm. It was meant to -overcome incompatibilities between different TERMs, but I found "screen" to -be just such a program. Maybe once some time in the future I'll make a -patch for screen to use VNConsole to export it's contents via RFB... - -These two programs are a simple application of LibVNCServer with a small -console layer in between (VNConsole). You can use them under the terms -(not vncTerms ;-) of the GPL. They where written by Johannes E. Schindelin. |
