Greetings from Yokohama, Japan.

I release new version (beta 0.09) of VNC viewer for OS/2 
PM.

This is new beta version (beta 0.09) of PM VNC viewer.  I 
appended some requested features and fixed some problems.

Fixes:

VNC viewer saved window's size & position for next time, 
but if you moved window (not changing window size), it 
failed to save window position.  Fixed to save position if 
window moved.

If using VNC viewer with VGA 16 colors, BGR233, TINY, GRAY 
failed to startup.  Due to failed to load 256 pallete on 
VGA 16 display.

Now TINY, GRAY uses default 16 colors with 16 entry color 
pallet. For BGR233, VNC viewer checks avaiable colors.  If 
enough colors avaiable (>=256), uses 256 entry pallet, and 
it works same as previous version.  If there are not 
enough pallet, then VNC viewer maps BGR233 into default 16 
colors, it works same as TINY color.

New Features:

Changed maximize operation.  On previous versions, 
maximize brings window to remote desktop size.  Now, if 
remote desktop size is greater than PM's dekstop size, 
remote desktop hold entire PM screen.  If remote desktop 
have same size of PM, entire remote desktop appears on PM 
screen.

Titlebar or system menu still exist in this state.  So if 
you want to use local function, ATL-SPACE will bring 
systemu menu.

You can get VNC viewer for PM under my OS/2 tools page
