Overview

This is a full-featured VNC viewer that supports macro recording and session capturing.

The first form is for normal VNC viewing. If no host is specified, a dialog box prompts for one. (It is this dialog box that allows macro recording and session capturing to be specified.)

The second form, with -listen, is for listen mode; a VNC server can make a connection to the viewer in listen mode.

The third form, with -stdio, causes xrfbviewer to use stdin and stdout for RFB communications (for use in inetd-type situations).

The fourth form is for getting information about xrfbviewer.
