Add a node.js-based tool (utils/parse.js) to read keysymdef.h and produce a JavaScript file
mapping Unicode code points to keysyms.
Also add the generated table (include/keysymdef.js).
This patch adds support for the secure attribute on token
cookies (sent by nova-novncproxy). If the https is used
to transfer the cookie, the secure attribute is set thus
restricting server requestes to secure conections only.
This should prevent man-in-the-middle attacks.
button group instead of centered.
* On low resolution devices the padding towards the edges of the screen of
the left and right button groups are now removed.
* Since the status_bar was merged into the control-bar the actual status_bar
element became redundant and was therefor removed.
* Improved the style of the control-bar when there is an error or a warning.
* Implemented a fix so that vnc_auto.html works as intended with the improved
screen real estate patch.

- Update to c0855c6cae of web-socket-js
- Update both the submodule and the swf build. The submodule now
contains the unobfuscated source for swfobject.js which should make
websockify more DFSG compliant.
- Remove Hixie support. iOS 6 now includes HyBi support which means
there is no remaining platform that needs Hixie.
Correctly identifies the use of http/https and forces the value of port to 80 and 443
respectively, as in this situation window.location.port is blank.
This is patch includes the same changes as made in vnc_auto.html
FBU.bytes must be set before return false to indicate that the FBU
header has been read. If not set then "if (FBU.bytes == 0) { ..}"
in framebufferUpdate will be entered and the copyrect header will
be interpreted as a new FBU leading to a "unsupported encoding"
disconnect error.
Some browsers (Firefox) reject unencrypted ws connections if the hosting
page uses https by throwing an exception when you create the websocket
object.
NoVNC interprets this as binary being unsupported, and falls back to
base64.
If we instead connect to wss://localhost, the websocket object can be
created regardless of whether the hosting page is on http or https.

- Fix for python2.4 with URL parsing.
- Set binaryType earlier in Opera 12.10 to avoid receiving a blob.
- Re-order client and target processing so that pending client data
has an opportunity to be sent when the target closes.

Split out the function to load a single script to Util.load_script.
In order to get sequential load, when on IE set the script defer flag.
It is currently working on webkit and firefox but just in case also
set the script.async flag to make sure that scripts execute in the
order they are added. Scripts should still load in parallel.
Data files should now set the variable VNC_frame_encoding to either
"binary" or "base64". The python websockify recording mode adds this
automatically based on what is negotiated with the client being
recorded.

In IE9, the window.onload event can fire before dynamically loaded
scripts have finished loading. This can result in either WebSocket (in
the case of vnc_auto.html) or RFB (in the case of vnc.html) not being
defined at the point when window.onload is called.
- Move the load_scripts routine from vnc.js to util.js (so that
websockify can use it too). Also, refactor to work when load_scripts
is called by a script that itself uses load_scripts. When the whole
chain of dynamically loaded scripts is finished then call
window.onscriptsload. Use this mechanism in all the places that
depend on dynamic loading of scripts: vnc.html, vnc_auto.html,
websock.js, tests/vnc_playback.html, and tests/vnc_perf.html.
- Use the new window.onscriptsload handler instead of window.onload.
- Remove include/start.js and do the script loading and startup event
handling in include/ui.js instead.
This is a workaround for corrupted non-square cursors seen on some
Windows 7 machines with NVIDIA cards. The corruption only happens when
the screen is in portrait mode.
The MPL 2.0 license is a "file-level" copyleft license vs the
"project-level" nature of the L/GPL. The intention of noVNC has
always been that it should be easy to incorporate into existing
projects and sites whether free/open or proprietary/commercial. The MPL
2.0 is designed for this sort of combination project but still
requires that any distributed modifications to noVNC source files must
also be published under the same license.
In addition, the MPL 2.0 allows the code to be used in L/GPL projects
(the secondary license clause). This means that any projects that are
already incorporating noVNC should not be impacted by this change and
in fact it should clarify the licensing situation (the exact
application of the L/GPL to web applications and interpreted code is
somewhat ambiguous).
The HTML, CSS, image and font files continue to be under more
permissive licenses (see LICENSE.txt). The included websockify python
code remains under a LGPLv3 license although the include/websock.js
file from the websockify component is now under MPL 2.0 as well.
Permission was received from other noVNC authors to make this change to their
code license on the following dates:
- Chris Gordon (UI): Jun 24, 2012
- Antoine Mercadal (DOM,*util.js): Oct 10, 2012
- William Lightning (UltraVNC repeater): Oct 10, 2012

Instead of using document.write to load scripts, use createElement to
create and append script tags. document.write is problematic in a lot
of situation and in particular is not allowed in a Chrome
extension/packaged app.
Also, in webutil.js, instead of calling init_logging during parsing of
include/webutil.js, rely on the caller to do this. The problem is that
calling init_logging on parse tries to call Util logging functions and
the new model of dynamic load may not having Util loaded by the time
webutil is parsed.
Move all the inline Javascript event handlers from vnc.html to
include/ui.js except the load handler which is moved to
include/start.js). This is on the path towards a Chrome
extension/packaged app since inline Javascript is prohibited in that
situation.
Switch from using cookies to store setting to using localStorage (or
chrome.storage.sync if available in extension/app mode) for the
settings. Also refactor to make the initializing of the setting and
and loading of the UI to be more asynchronous.
Add routines to store/read settings in either localStorage or in
chrome.storage.sync (which is synchronized between browsers for
extensions/apps).
Before using chrome.storage.sync the initSettings routine must to
called setup the intermediate cache which speeds up access and allows
multiple setting changes to be coallesced to avoid hitting storage
change frequency limits/quotas.
- enable sending and receiving of raw array buffers in addition to
strings.
- add a read poll interval and set it to 15ms by default to detect
and handle quickly when a message is pending.
- also, detect a disconnected state and add call registration for
disconnect events.
This change pulls websockify 6d9deda9c5.
Most note worthy changes:
- Pulls in web-socket-js 7677e7a954 which updates to IETF 6455 (from
Hixie)
- Binary support detection and use in include/websock.js
- Add ssl and unix target support
- Add multiple target support via config file/dir.
- Idle timeout exit
Use a simpler method of enabling binary transfer over WebSockets. This
still presents the user of websock.js with a plain javascript array
for the receive queue data. However, if binary support is supported
and requested then the transfer will be raw frames instead of base64
encoded.
Lots of room for optimization here but for now correct is better than
fast.

In other words, you can modify the layout and appearance of of noVNC

However, use of and modification of the noVNC core library (i.e. the
