NAME
     vinagre - VNC client for the GNOME Desktop

SYNOPSIS
     vinagre [--gtk-vnc-debug]  [--file=filename]  [--new-window]
     [gnome-std-options] [server[:port]

DESCRIPTION
     vinagre is a VNC client for the GNOME desktop which is popu-
     lar due to its features.

     - You can connect to several machines at the same time

     - You can save your most used connections as bookmarks

     - You can access your recently used connections

     - You can browse your network for VNC servers

     - You do not need to supply a password for every  connection
     because  vinagre  is  integrated  with  gnome-keyring and it
     securely manages connection passwords for you

     - You can add a GNOME panel applet to quickly launch vinagre
     to access VNC servers

     - You can connect to a VNC server by double  clicking  on  a
     .vnc  file  when  using  nautilus.  This file is in a format
     recognized by vinagre to specify a VNC server, eg:

     [connection]
     host=snoopy
     port=5900

     where 'snoopy' is the name of the machine, and '5900' is the
     port number.

     The following options are supported:

     --gtk-vnc-debug         Enables debug output



     -f, --file=filename     Opens a .vnc file



     -n, --new-window        Create a new toplevel window  in  an

     gnome-std-options       Standard options available  for  use
                             with  most  GNOME  applications. See

     server[:port]           Specifies the VNC server to  connect
                             with.  The  VNC  server  name  or IP
                             address is followed by a  colon  (:)
                             character,  and then followed by the
                             VNC port number. The port specifica-
                             tion  is  optional.  If  it  is  not
                             specified,  default  value  of  5900
                             will  be used. If the value is lower
                             than 1024, it  will  add  5900.  For
                             example,  ":0" means "5900" and ":1"
                             means ":5901".
