tsclient == a frontend for rdesktop and other remote desktop tools

Features:
  • GTK+-2.0 frontend for rdesktop and other remote desktop tools
  • GNOME panel applet to quickly launch saved profiles
  • reads and writes profiles in the Microsoft format (.rdp), maintaining compatability with the Microsoft client
  • similar look and functionality to the Microsoft client
  • written in C using GTK and GNOME
  • features a profile launcher which launches saved profiles
  • Translated to 20+ languages.
  • support for rdesktop 1.3
  • support for VNC clients (*vncviewer)
    supported vnc options are -fullscreen, -geometry, -depth and -viewonly (set by checking "no motion events"). for a vncpasswd file, put the full path to the file in the username field.
  • support for X via Xnest

    Translations: I am looking for people to provide translations. If you provide a translation, please let me know your character code. The PO template is here: tsclient.pot.
    I also added support for translated banner images (the one at the top). If you translate the text, you might also make an attempt at the banner image. The template is here. Save that and give it a shot.
    I recommend using gtranslator (http://gtranslator.sourceforge.net/) to do the translation. It's much easier than doing it by hand and less prone to errors. :-)
    Thanks!

    Documentation I am looking for people to provide documentation. I have neither the knowledge nor the desire to learn how to do this, so it is up to someone else.
    Thanks!

    Any questions or comments, email me at erick@gnomepro.com or erickwoods on aim/gaim.

    NOTICE: For those with questions on the status... I'm not real inclined to make a lot of changes in tsclient at this time. It's stable & working, there aren't any bugs that I am aware of and I don't have a lot of time. It is not dead, just in hibernation. If you want something done, send a patch. :-)

    I am also working on a C#/Mono version, but I don't know if that will ever get published. It's much improved, but needs a lot of work still.


    Requirements:
  • rdesktop >= 1.3.0
  • glib >= 2.0.0
  • gtk+ >= 2.0.0
