Minor operational point on WinViewer

And here's another minor request:
In the list of "sent to host" keystrokes, could we have control-escape? If
windows 95 (and NT too, I think) task bar is in auto-hide mode, you can't
bring it up by moving the mouse down to the bottom of the screen, even if
you are in full screen mode and matching the resolution of the screen.
This is the case because the VNC cursor cannot drag the mouse cursor down
far enough; it is a few pixels high. I have found in win98, they must have
increased the "threshold" because I can get the taskbar to come up by
bringing it down to the vincinity of the bar.
Great product at any rate. Keep up the good work.

()Wez; here's a minor request for you: I note that the Win viewer doesn't
()appear to put up it's startbar button immediately on launch.
()
()Notably, if you launch it from some other program, with an address
()argument, you can't tell if it's caught, if the other machine isn't
()answering (is that timeout configurable, BTW?).
()
()It would be awfully nice to at least be able to see that it's _trying_
()to connect, during that timeout period. I know Windows _just_ well
()enough to know that this might well _be_ impossible, but I thought I'd
()ask.
()
()Thanks kindly for the default screen number, BTW.

()Cheers,
