- Xpra is a multi-platform persistent remote display server and client for - forwarding applications and desktop screens. -
-- It gives you remote access to individual applications or full desktops. - On X11, it is also known as 'screen for X11': it allows you to run programs, - usually on a remote host, direct their display to your local machine, and - then to disconnect from these programs and reconnect from the same - or another machine, without losing any state. - It can also be used to forward full desktops, from X11 servers, - MS Windows, or Mac OS X. - Xpra also allows forwarding of sound, clipboard and printing services. -
-- With X11 programs, Xpra can be used "rootless" or "seamless": - programs you run under it show up on your desktop as regular programs, - managed by your regular window manager. - Sessions can be accessed over SSH, or password protected over plain - TCP sockets. Xpra is usable over reasonably slow links and does its - best to adapt to changing network bandwidth constraints. -
