- Subject: Some ideas to promote Xming features
Here are some ideas to make Xming features more readily visible. This I
believe is in the spirit of Xlaunch, which didn't line up with how I use
Xming.
Add a couple of short-cut menu options to the icon in the task bar
- "xterm over SSH". This would simply ask for the
IP/hostname and then launch an SSH session w/X tunneling. This is
"earth shattering" since both Xservers & SSH X tunneling might be new
concepts to those who install Xming for the first time. It reduces
the things that a user has to remember/learn to IP/hostname, login and
password. I'm assuming he can figure out how to install and run
Xming :-)
- Others? I don't use XDCMP, but perhaps something similar would apply
here?
