-
- Changes made since 3.54:
- ViNCEd can now be mounted as RAW console handler, i.e.
- SetVNC mount override as RAW will work fine.
- Fixed two minor bugs in the window open routine.
- Added the ICONIFIED and NOFALLBACK options, VNC 3.55
- will now come with FALLBACK by default because the
- old standard conflicted with various programs.
- Added another cursor shape that's getting displayed if
- the output is stopped with ^S.

- Notes:
-
- Check the TOP_SECRET file in this archive!
-
-
-
- VirusWorkShop seems to have trouble with the overlay file structure
- that is used by the SetVNC program.
- THIS IS NOT A VIRUS! It is a bugfix of the oldish CBM overlay
- manager which is really buggy!
- VirusWorkShop will be updated soon. (I hope)
-
- To trick VirusWorkshop, the SetVNC program in this archive is
- encoded. Use the "Decode" program from the "Extras" drawer to
- decode manually. The installer script has been updated to do
- this for you.
-
- Thanks Urban, for reporting!

-
- Some virus checkers might complain about the set PktWait() pointer
- of the VNCFiler.supervisor. Again:
-
- THIS IS NOT A VIRUS!
-
- Anti-Beol has been updated to handle this case, please
- update your copy as well!
