[FreeNX-kNX] nxdesktop and nxviewer, perception, documentation

[Scott Serr]

I've read that nxdesktop and nxviewer are no longer shipped with NX.  It 
was said that the functionality was now in the NX libraries.  How would 
you use that functionality?  The nxscripts/run-nxdesktop* and 
nxscripts/run-nxviewer* still appear to try to run them.  Is this cruft 
that NoMachine has left in?

It seems like there is a fair amount of criticism out there for nx and 
freenx.  I have many questions that I think more complete and more 
current documentation could help with.  Going on 4 years, I think lack 
of documentation and organization undermines freenx's success.  I know 
it's "documented" in the thousands of lines of scripts, but not everyone 
can consume that.  It seems that man pages and --help would go along 
way.  NX knowledge seems to be locked away in freenx developers' minds 
and in the scripts. 

I really appreciate the page: 
http://openfacts.berlios.de/index-en.phtml?title=NX_Components -- Now if 
there were examples on how to construct the connections explained there 
that would be great.  With current NX libraries, that would be great 
also...  (without nxviewer and nxdesktop)  Or maybe without nxviewer and 
nxdesktop, VNC and RDP transfers are impossible now?

I'm trying to help.  I would be happy to collect and organize documentation.

Thanks,
Scott
