History

January 2007

Screenshot from the first published version. Original caption:
Here you can see how Heavyiron connected from Russia to my (hidnplayr's) server in Belgium.

Can connect to VNC servers that are not secured, using an unencrypted connection.
Uses DNS to retrieve IP
Only Supports RAW encoding for now.
Screen resolution of the server may not be bigger then that of the client.
Hard coded for 8Bpp now. (Because the stack is so horribly slow)
Can send mouse events.
Beeps if requested by the server.

August 2015

Resurrected from broken state.
Support for CopyRect, RRE and TRLE encodings added.
Support for keyboard added.
Support for VNC authentication added.
Support for 8/16/24/32 BPP (selectable before assembling) added.
Render cursor locally.

ToDo

Update archiver.obj so that ZRLE will work.
Fullscreen mode.
