Not sure how to contact you but some random feedback:

First, thank you very much for the repository as well as the builds! About the only place to get 'em these days (a working VNC server).

A few notes:

5.1.0 seems to not have a .dmg file (5.0.1's also "not signed" FWIW).

Also some README links (testplant) are 404's now.

Also this commit might be interesting, ran into it on accident: https://github.com/browserstack/OSXVNC/commit/26428ca8e1860a17a215300073436e149e1ccf8e

Might be nice to add some instructions in the README for how to build it (for those of us unfamiliar with XCode) (for followers, it's "open in xcode" click the "play button" then grab a copy from "/private/tmp/VineServer/Vine Server.app"

Thanks :)

5.1.0 seems to not have a .dmg file (5.0.1's also "not signed" FWIW).

You could try the .dmg file from UB Mannheim (I am not sure whether it is newer than 5.0.1). It is also unsigned, as we did not succeed in signing the code up to now.

Did you experience problems which get fixed by the indicated commit? How can they be reproduced?

I welcome pull requests which improve the code or the documentation.

OK that dmg was newer (5.1.0) thank you. AOdd to have the releases page mention 5.1.0 but then not have a binary for it as it were :)

No problems, just thought it was interesting.

And OK.

Thanks!

I now added a binary to release 5.1.0. It is completely untested though.

rdp commented 6 years ago

Awesome thank you. I may have run into an issue with it but can file it separately and later, thanks!

A few more random feedbacks that aren't worthy of much: it would be nice if, when you first fire it up it says "The server is not running." if it also said "The system server is running" (if it is). Today it "feels" like it's turned off even if the system server is going.

Another feedback: logs from the system server somehow seem to not show up in the Server (menu) -> view log. Thanks for your help/work on this project!
