NAME

       xpra_launcher - User interface to connect to a Xpra session

SYNOPSIS

       xpra_launcher [FILENAME]

DESCRIPTION

       xpra_launcher  is  a tool which enables you to connect to a remote xpra(1) session using a graphical user
       interface. It is able to read a pre-configured session file.

       When called without FILENAME, xpra_launcher will spawn a GTK window allowing you to  set  the  connection
       parameters  easily.   If  FILENAME  is  specified,  the  parameters  in the GUI will be set to the values
       specified in the session  file.  Additionally,  if  the  session  file  contains  the  special  parameter
       "autoconnect", xpra_launcher will skip displaying the parameters window and will establish the connection
       directly.

SESSION FILE

       The format of the session file passed to xpra_launcher as a parameter is a series of  parameter  =  value
       lines.   Most  of  the  options available through the xpra command line are also available in the session
       file.  For instance:

       host   Specify the remote host to connect to.

       port   Specify the remote port to connect to.

       encoding
              Specify the encoding type to use: h264, jpeg, png, ... See  xpra  --help  for  the  full  list  of
              available encodings.

       quality
              Set the image quality when using lossy encodings. Values are 1-100.

       mode   Connection mode: tcp or ssh.

       autoconnect
              Specify  whether  to establish connection immediately (True) or simply pre-fill the parameters for
              the user to review (False, the default).
