Hello, I am trying to do something which ought to be quite simple
but there doesn't seem to be an obvious way.
I want to run a remote session from a PC on MacOS X11 server and
currently do this by running
/usr/X11R6/bin/X -broadcast -once
in a terminal window. This is OK but the server fills both of the
two displays. I would like to have it fill just one display or in
fact ideally the server just to be a `normal' (non-maximised) window
on the Mac display, and to have all the menu options that X11.app
shows. It doesn't seem to be possible to launch X11.app with the -
broadcast -once options, or to make /usr/X11R6/bin/X work like
X11.app but either of those would achieve what I want.
Any ideas ?
You can do something like this (not tested or checked for typos):
--- begin argv0_x11_hack.c ---
#include <unistd.h>
int main(int argc, char **argv) {
argv[0] = "/Applications/Utilities/X11.app/Contents/MacOS/X11";
return execv("/usr/X11/bin/X", argv);
}
---
gcc -o x11_hack argv0_x11_hack.c
./x11_hack -broadcast -once
