Description:
 This is a small front-end to rdesktop that 
allows you to have multiple rdesktop sessions in a
tabbed environment. It is designed to be quick,
clean and easy.  This is still in Alpha, so please
forgive any bugs that may occur.

Please let me know how you like it.

 

Changelog:
 Version 0.08

A whole lot of stuff...

* Added a Location Bar, now you can 
optionally type a address to go to. If you type a
host with a configured profile, ktabbedrdp will
automatically use the profile.

*Added ability to type :console to establish a
connection to the console of the machine
specified.

*Profile editor!!! You can now create/edit/delete
profiles in the profile editor. DO NOT edit a
SeamlessRDP profile with the editor, its not yet
supported.

*Added Options tag to configuration dialog, from
there you can configure the program to bypass
KDE's ctrl-alt-delete shortcut, and even autohide
the hosts and location bar when connecting to a
host, so you can really use as much space as
possible.

*EXPERIMENTAL SeamlesRDP integration - If you have
seamlessRDP installed on the remote host you can
now add (only) an application under the remote
applications on the start page. This application
will be started up in its own window just like if
you ran it from an conventional rdp session.

*Auto-hiding of statusbar after specified 
interval.

*Various other cosmetic changes, especially the
start page.

*Added sound port redirection option.

*Probably a lot of bugs too! (enjoy! ;)




Version 0.03

Fixed (i hope) sizing bug. This will ensure the
rdp screen takes up as much space as possible on
the screen.

Added limited profile support, you can use
KWallets to store user/pass/domain info.

Some documentation done.


Version 0.02a

Changed configuration page. Users can
now edit hosts in a spreadsheet-like manner. 

Added DisplayName configuration variable. You can
now customize what is displayed in the host list.
(its good for machines you connect to via ip)

**EXPERIMENTAL** (and the cause for the kde 3.5
min req jump and my gray hairs)

Added the ability to temporarily remap kde's
ctrl+alt+delete (log out) shortcut to ctrl+alt+end
while ktabbedrdp is running. The original keyshort
will be restored when ktabbedrdp is closed. This
is to fix a weird issue where the ctrl+alt+delete
sequence does not get handled by rdesktop when it
is embedded in a window. Key mappings take effect
the moment you click on the option. 



Version 0.01a

Fixed stupid icon issue
Fixed compile files so target wont have to be
i686. You only need to update if you could not
compile before or want an icon.

[b]INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS:[/b]

execute ktabbedkrdpinstaller.sh and it will
automatically guide you through the rest of the
install process.

After install look for a program called krdp in
your utilities menu. I am sorry i am trying to
change the name of the project files, takes some
time to do.

UPDATE INSTRUCTIONS:

remove previous krdp.kdevelop directory and run
installer
