Support for Full Screen Dos Mode?

[Mark Vinten]

With Regards to the Registry modification suggestion, it would be hard to
implement a screen ontop to the user, because VNC takes the entire desktop,
as visible to the user, and displays in a remote window.

Therefore, the window the user sees, would be the window you see and not the
registry editing one.

Hi all,  do you know if a future release is intended to support full screen
text mode on Windows OS?  Maybe this will require to have a generic display
driver installed!

As other suggestions, another option that can be helpful for WinVNC to be
use as a HelpDesk Tool is to be able to revoke the mouse and keyboard
control to the current user when working on their desktop.  Also, sometimes
when we do some registry modification, we don't want the user to see what we
are doing so maybe it would be nice to have a blank screen appear top the
end user when working on their station.  I know that this need to be
implemented in a way that these options can be disable depending on each
local policies.  This was a though. 

Thanks
