1 | Simple VNC terminal emulator (inspired by VncCommand) |
| 2 | ||
| 3 | We try to simulate a 'xterm', because we want to support: | |
| 4 | ||
| 5 | - unicode | |
| 6 | - mouse | |
| 7 | ||
| 8 | and xterm seems to be the best solution for that. | |
| 9 | ||
| 10 | some code is inspired by: qemu, VncCommand, xterm, linux kernel, ... | |
| 11 | ||
| 12 | libvncserver | |
| 13 | ============ | |
| 14 | ||
| 15 | LibVNCServer does not suppurt TLS currently. So we staically link to a | |
| 16 | patched versions on that library instead of using the debian shared | |
| 17 | libraries. | |
| 18 | ||
| 19 | VNC Java Applet (for use in web based applications): | |
| 20 | ==================================================== | |
| 21 | ||
| 336e20e1 | 22 | We use patched VncViewer files (TigerVNC 1.1.0 sources): |

| 25 | ||
| 26 | We sign the applet to make clipboard working. | |

28 | Note: Newer tigervnc 1.2.0 always use a toplevel window, which |
| 29 | make it basically useless as applet. | |

| 35 | TODO: | |
| 36 | ===== | |
| 37 | ||
| 38 | Useful sources for terminal emulation: | |
| 39 | ||
| 40 | xterm source: ctlseqs.txt | |
| 41 | http://vt100.net/docs/vt220-rm | |
| 42 | man 5 terminfo | |
| 43 | infocmp xterm | |
| 44 | man console_codes | |
| 45 | ||
| 46 | Fonts: | |
| 47 | ||
| 48 | we currently use fonts provided by the debian console-data package: | |
| 49 | see /usr/share/consolefonts/* | |
| 50 | ||
| 51 | Only 8x16 fonts are supported | |
| 52 | ||
| 53 | TODO contains a list of unimplemented things. |
