v0.6.0

Thanks to Jim Ramsay, we now have a new control command named wayvncctl that can be used to configure the server while it's running. A non-exhaustive list of new features that are enabled by this addition are the following:

• The captured output can be changed on the fly
• Connected clients can be listed and managed
• Various events can be monitored

See the man page for wayvncctl(1) for more information.

The control interface may change in future versions, and that includes the names of commands and events.

Highlights

• Control interface, mentioned above.
• Screen capturing is paused when no client is connected
• Screen capturing is paused for outputs that are powered off
• Horizontal scrolling
• Each client now gets its own set of virtual inputs. This helps with state tracking.
• Symbol to key code mapping now works better with xwayland
