#include <rfb/rfb.h>

/*
 * This is a simple example demonstrating a protocol extension.
 *
 * The "back channel" permits sending commands between client and server.
 * It works by sending plain text messages.
 *
 * As suggested in the RFB protocol, the back channel is enabled by asking
 * for a "pseudo encoding", and enabling the back channel on the client side
 * as soon as it gets a back channel message from the server.
 *
 * This implements the server part.
 *
 * Note: If you design your own extension and want it to be useful for others,
 * too, you should make sure that
 *
 * - your server as well as your client can speak to other clients and
 *   servers respectively (i.e. they are nice if they are talking to a
 *   program which does not know about your extension).
 *
 * - if the machine is little endian, all 16-bit and 32-bit integers are
 *   swapped before they are sent and after they are received.
 *
