[seul-edu] New educational app--utility



http://www.xwinx.org/

XWinX is a project to create a program in C to remotely control an
MS Windows® machine, just like you can with VNC, Citrix MetaFrame®
(Citrix ICA®), pcAnywhere® and friends.

XWinX will, hopefully, continue to develop towards filling its
little niche very well, providing remote access to a Windows machine
from an X server with no additional software required on the client
(X server) side.  Hopefully it will also support "published
applications" similar to Citrix MetaFrame, which VNC doesn't
support. Depending on how the plans for published applications and
multi-user support turn out, XWinX could start being a free and open
source alternative to some of the things currently only possible
with Citrix MetaFrame®. Even if it does, it will probably never
rival the speed.
