hihi. Thanks. "It transmits the keyboard and mouse events from one computer to another, relaying the graphical screen updates back in the other direction, over a network." "The VNC protocol (RFB) is very simple, based on one graphic primitive from server to client ('Put a rectangle of pixel data at the specified X,Y position') and event messages from client to server." Compare to above. Now, the part where it defines that clipboard is also a standard part of VNC... oh, huch, it's not there! (Just a random note that Unicode is impossible, but not that clipboard is defined as part of the protocol at all.) Ah, I know... Surely, it must be on <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/RFB_protocol>... No, same thing there. Strange. So much for the lulz... Ben P.S. I was just reporting bug. I hope at least some software finds a better solution. Have fun. _______________________________________________ Full-Disclosure - We believe in it.
