Good Tool!

Summary
This review was originally posted on VersionTracker.com.<br />Ah, alt key works again in emacs & ksh. This is one of my primary tools for remote work. I'd use the built in vnc, except that it doesn't work on localhost ssh tunnels. This tool works well for me, even over high latency international connections. Thanks a bunch, Jolly!
As it says, FAST !! Best VNC client I have used

Summary
By far the best VNC client

Great and free

Pros
Works extremely well for connecting to computer on the local network using VPN or Bonjour. Window sizing and most keyboard syncing is great
Cons
Can't use function keys such as F9 to separate windows on remote machines I haven't tried it for computers that are not on a local machine so I cannot comment on that. The download on C-Net doesn't work, had to get it somewhere else
Summary
A very good product especially considering that it is free
Much improved...

Summary
This review was originally posted on VersionTracker.com.<br />When I first discovered this, it was great then builds for last fall through the end of the year were very troublesome. Lots of crashing, memory leaks, and sluggishness, but this most recent version seems to be back in the game. For Mac-to-Mac sharing, Apple's Screen Sharing can't be beat for speed and ease of use (though I need to do the usual hacks to it to get the bonjour browser and other features) but this is again my favorite third party VNC viewer. I especially appreciate the new authentication choices. If you gave up on this, give it another try.
Great app, but needs to handle right mouse button

Summary
This review was originally posted on VersionTracker.com.<br />The only complaint I have is that I wish the right mouse button would send the correct modifier key to the remote machine. Otherwise, this is a great app, and I strongly recommend it.
Great little app

Essential Program

Summary
This review was originally posted on VersionTracker.com.<br />I can't comment on versions in other languages, but I have to say I regard this program as absolutely essential for managing my computers effectively with one keyboard. I have two computers and three screens, and often a MacPro is running in one window, the Mac Mini in another, and WinXP in another via Parallels - and using this program, the three work seamlessly from the one keyboard. It is fast, problems encountered with updates are looked into (and solved!) by the developer very quickly, and has given me very little problem over the years. And it's free! It's a GREAT program in my opinion.
CONGRATULATIONS!!! Non-US keyboards are handled...

...correctly!!<br />This review was originally posted on VersionTracker.com.<br />I'm so happy I at last found an application that handles non-US keyboards correctly. I connected to my daughters machine and was able to keyboard text using French keyboard and even using my home-made polytonic Greek keyboard. It worked seamlessly. Previously I was using Chicken of the VNC and when I typed an A on my French AZERTY keyboard a Q came out on the distant machine, even although I had French keyboards activated on both machines. Thank you so much!!! Chers amis francophones vos problÃƒÂ¨mes sont terminÃƒÂ©s. DÃƒÂ©sormais vous pouvez utiliser JollysFastVNC et saisir vos textes sans problÃƒÂ¨me sur la machine distante.

Summary
This review was originally posted on VersionTracker.com.<br />I run a MacPro and a MacMIni, and I simply combine their computing power using this program. That's fantastic; I can leave all the routine tasks to the MacMini and give the crunching stuff to the MacPro. All on the screen, keyboard and mouse in front of me, switcfhing between the two with one click of the mouse. At this stage of its development, it is a brilliant, must have program for me. Rifty
