ThinLinc

[NomisIV]

Project description
ThinLinc is a remote desktop application, like TeamViewer but for Linux. My college uses it to give students remote access to their school linux machines.

There is a generic Linux tarball and a MacOS image downloadable from their website (I have provided links below). The Linux tarball looks like something that would be moved to the filesystem root in a regular distro, and there is a global configuration file (./etc/tlclient.conf) which could be used for configuration options. I would personally find options for "FULL_SCREEN_MODE" and "OPTIONS_POPUP_KEY" particulary useful.

If someone knows how this could be done but doesn't have the time to do it themselves, please leave an explanation or a link to a relevant webpage. I would be happy to become a maintainer of this package, if I just knew the how-tos.

Here is the link to the AUR PKGBUILD for reference: https://aur.archlinux.org/cgit/aur.git/tree/PKGBUILD?h=tlclient

If there are any questions, I'll be happy to provide more information
