New in the 0.8 x11vnc release:
TightVNC file transfer support is enabled via the extension to
LibVNCServer added by Rohit Kumar.
The -passwdfile option has been enhanced to handle any number
of full-access and view only passwords in an easy to
maintain format, and additional features.
The -8to24 option enables multi-depth viewing on systems that do
not support -overlay. The 8bpp regions are transformed
to depth 24 TrueColor before exporting via VNC.
The x11vnc source code has gone through a major reorganization.
The build has been enhanced and many bugs fixed.
miscellaneous new features and changes:
-afteraccept option is like -accept however it enables running
a user supplied command after client authentication
has taken place. The RFB_* environment variables have
been extended.
-loop option will run x11vnc in an outer loop restarting each time
(useful for situations where the X server restarts often).
-slow_fb allows for slow polling for special purpose applications
(e.g. video).
-blackout noptr,WxH+X+Y,... will prevent the pointer from going
into a blacked out region.

x11vnc allows one to remotely view and interact with real X displays
(i.e. a display corresponding to a physical monitor, keyboard, and
mouse) with any VNC viewer. In this way it plays the role for Unix/X11
that WinVNC plays for Windows.
