Changes since version 1.7.1
* Fixed some bugs
Changes since version 1.6.1
* Now re-connects automatically
* New input capture method which handles odd screen sizes better
* Added -tunnel and -via for automatic SSH tunneling
* Further fixes for cut'n'paste. (Should now work with java
and on 64 bit platforms.)
* Randr support allow x2vnc to detect when the screen is rotated
Changes since version 1.6
* Added Martin Dorey's patch which fixes cut'n'paste for Java
(and other) applications.
* Fixed a bug in -navhack
Changes since version 1.5.1
* Added some patches from Grant McDorman to allow proper
cut'n'paste between x2vnc and Konsole/gnome-terminal.
* Honor $DESTDIR to make packaging easier.
* Added a workaround to make cut'n'paste work better with old
VNC servers.
* Since all new VNC servers already support wheel emulation
themseleves, x2vnc doesn't translate wheel events to arrow
up/down anymore unless -wheelhack is specified.
* Added -navhack which is similar to -wheelhack, except it
translates button 6 & 7 to Alt+Left/Right.
* Added -debug to debug key events
* Allow -edgewidth 0 to turn off edge-flipping
* Now traps grabkey errors, no more X errors.
* Xinerama support, allows x2vnc to work sanely on multi-head X displays.
* If stdin is not a tty, read password with fgets() instead of getpass().
This allows scripts to feed in the password.
* New arguments -noblank and -lockdelay allows you to keep screen savers
from activating while using your computers.

* Reversed mouse wheel direction (-reversewheel will get
old behaviour)
* Added an autoconf script for easier compilation on
systems where xmkmf has not been configured properly.
* Fixed -edgewidth to affect mouse pointer returns as well,
should fix some problems on Digital Unix.
Update provided by Michael Santos <mike@ethmoid.org> in PR 18526
x2vnc merges the capabilities of x2x and vncviewer. It will allow
a machine with an X display and a machine with a VNC server running
on its main screen to act as if they were two displays connected
to one machine. When you move your mouse pointer off the screen in
a direction of your choosing, the pointer will appear on the other
screen instead.
