TightVNC 1.2.2 released

[Constantin K. <co...@ce...>]

Hello,

TightVNC 1.2.2 has been released today. This version does not feature
a lot of great new features, but I think improvements in its Win32
part may worth the upgrade. Here is a brief list of changes over
1.2.1:

  - Win32 server: long-standing Win9x resource consumption problem has
    been fixed. Now the server thread does not use blocking I/O, and
    therefore is always ready to process messages from the VNCHooks
    DLL.

  - Win32 server: now built-in HTTP daemon may be enabled and disabled
    interactively from the Advanced Preferences dialog (this setting
    is saved in new "EnableHTTPDaemon" registry key).

  - Win32 server: changes in layout and text of the Advanced
    Preferences dialog.

  - Xvnc: Minor bugfix which should prevent potential dereference of a
    NULL pointer.

  - Unix viewer: Now viewer window would be raised on remote beep
    (bell) event by default. New -noraiseonbeep option and the
    "raiseOnBeep" resource set to False disable this behaviour.

  - One more packaging option for the Unix source: ready to build
    archive with Zlib and JPEG libraries inside.

  - Other minor fixes and cleanups.

New version is available from the usual place:
