A fully functional VNC client for your geeky character terminals (Linux VT, xterm, and more).
headmore requires the following components to compile and run:
libcacaand its development fileslibvncserver(orlibvncclient) and its development files
The two libraries themself depend on:
libgcryptand its development fileslibjpeg8and its development fileslibopenssland its development fileslibpng16-compatand its development files
After having installed the dependencies, simply run make, then start your favourite VNC server (vncsever for example), and ./headmore host_or_ip:port!
I will be very happy to assist you (as a packager) to make headmore available in your favourite Linux/BSD/Solaris distribution. A sample RPM package is available here.
headmore has two input modes that determine where your keyboard input goes, the mode switch is carried out by backtick (`) key.
In general, the left hand side keys pan and zoom viewer, the right hand side keys clicks mouse and move cursor. The key mapping is comprehensively explained in the program's help menu (type h), the manual page (man 1 headmore), and the illustration below:
