Hmmm, yes, I didn't think of that. However, wouldn't a global pixmap cache solve the same problem in a more general way? For example, the server would scan the screen for patterns that tend to repeat, and then send them to the client only once, thereafter sending only a reference number. Things like font characters, window borders, buttons, icons, etc. could then all be saved at the client, and the server would only send their arrangement. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, mail [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the line: 'unsubscribe vnc-list' in the message BODY See also: http://www.uk.research.att.com/vnc/intouch.html ---------------------------------------------------------------------
