It provides anative VNC viewer that takes advantage of newfeatures in x11vnc, e.g. cursor alpha blending andautomatic SSL tunnelling. Some features apply toany VNC server, e.g. automatic SSH tunnelling.Another goal is to provide a package thatconveniently bundles everything needed for theuser to have the enhanced viewer running quickly.This includes pre-built binaries of the viewer andutility programs for Windows and many Unixvariants, and a GUI to configure and launch theviewer. The short name for this project is "ssvnc", forSSL/SSH VNC viewer.

Changes:
SSVNC's SSL encryption is extended to support the VeNCrypt and TLS security type extensions to VNC for both forward and reverse connections. Anonymous Diffie-Hellman encryption is now available for all SSL/TLS modes. SSL Certificate Revocation Lists are supported. CUPS print tunneling is greatly improved, and the default settings should work for most setups. The Windows helper programs are updated to their most recent versions. On Unix, stunnel is updated to the latest version.
