not without modifying the source code and recompiling.

Subject: How to add a "Send F8" item to the NT viewer menu



It is great that the new Xvnc viewer in its F8 menu
has both choices: "send ctrl-alt-del" and "send F8".

This is very useful when cascading vnc viewers.

However, the NT viewer's menu only has "send ctrl-alt-del".
The "send F8" is missing. This is causing a problem when
I run the NT viewer, viewing an Xvnc desktop. In one of
the xterm windows on the Xvnc desktop I launch a viewer
to a third Xvnc server. From my NT viewer it is impossible
to send an F8 to the third viewer.

So my question is:

  Is the menu in the NT viewer configurable, just like
  the Xvnc viewer so I can add a "Send F8" to it?

  If yes, how do I do it?

Thanks

Freddy
