XPRA_LAUNCHER(1)       DragonFly General Commands Manual      XPRA_LAUNCHER(1)

NAME
       xpra_launcher - User interface to connect to a Xpra session

SYNOPSIS
       xpra_launcher [FILENAME]

DESCRIPTION
       xpra_launcher is a tool which enables you to connect to a remote
       xpra(1) session using a graphical user interface. It is able to read a
       pre-configured session file.

       When called without FILENAME, xpra_launcher will spawn a GTK window
       allowing you to set the connection parameters easily.  If FILENAME is
       specified, the parameters in the GUI will be set to the values
       specified in the session file. Additionally, if the session file
       contains the special parameter "autoconnect", xpra_launcher will skip
       displaying the parameters window and will establish the connection
       directly.

SESSION FILE
       The format of the session file passed to xpra_launcher as a parameter
       is a series of parameter = value lines.  Most of the options available
       through the xpra command line are also available in the session file.
       For instance:

       host   Specify the remote host to connect to.

       port   Specify the remote port to connect to.

       encoding
              Specify the encoding type to use: h264, jpeg, png, ... See xpra
              --help for the full list of available encodings.

       quality
              Set the image quality when using lossy encodings. Values are
              1-100.

       mode   Connection mode: tcp or ssh.

       autoconnect
              Specify whether to establish connection immediately (True) or
              simply pre-fill the parameters for the user to review (False,
              the default).
