VNCViewer
DeforaOS VNCViewer
==================
About VNCViewer
---------------
This program is meant to be used as a client for the VNC remote desktop sharing
protocol.
This project is originally based on an example file from the gtk-vnc library
(https://wiki.gnome.org/Projects/gtk-vnc).
VNCViewer is part of the DeforaOS Project, found at https://www.defora.org/.
Compiling VNCViewer
-------------------
The current requirements for compiling VNCViewer are as follows:
* Gtk+ 2.4 or later, or Gtk+ 3.0 or later
* DeforaOS libDesktop
* the gtk-vnc library
* an implementation of `make`
* gettext (libintl) for translations
With these installed, the following command should be enough to compile
VNCViewer on most systems:
$ make
The following command will then install VNCViewer:
$ make install
To install (or package) VNCViewer in a different location:
$ make clean
$ make PREFIX="/another/prefix" install
VNCViewer also supports `DESTDIR`, to be installed in a staging directory; for
instance:
$ make DESTDIR="/staging/directory" PREFIX="/another/prefix" install
On some systems, the Makefiles shipped can be re-generated accordingly thanks to
the DeforaOS configure tool.
The compilation process supports a number of options, such as PREFIX and DESTDIR
for packaging and portability, or OBJDIR for compilation outside of the source
tree.
