Description Peter Åstrand cendio 2003-02-10 14:53:56 CET 
Maybe it's possible to get rid of connecting the vncviewer to
localhost:something. It seems like one can use stdin/stdout instead.
Comment 1 Peter Åstrand cendio 2004-03-01 14:49:56 CET 
No time for this now. The actual advantages of this are low.

Note that this would not work for us, since we want to use stdin/stdout for XMLRPC.

No clear reason why this would be an improvement. Closing.
