RX: X Remote eXecution
|
|
----------------------
|
|
|
|
The remote execution (RX) service specifies a MIME format for invoking
|
|
applications remotely, for example via a World Wide Web browser. This RX format
|
|
specifies a syntax for listing network services required by the application, for
|
|
example an X display server. The requesting Web browser must identify specific
|
|
instances of the services in the request to invoke the application.
|
|
|
|
The distribution contains a helper program (xrx) and a Mozilla family browser
|
|
plug-in (libxrx) that demonstrate this protocol. The plug-in was originally
|
|
written for Navigator 3.0, but has been used with later versions of the Mozilla
|
|
family of browsers, including Firefox.
|
|
|
|
The specification for the RX mime type is in the xorg-docs module in the X.Org
|
|
repository in specs/RX/RX.mif (FrameMaker interchange source) and
|
|
hardcopy/RX/RX.PS.Z (compressed PostScript).
