14. t Protocol The input side of the protocol is based on a standard workstation model of a keyboard and multi button pointing device Input events are simply sent to the server by the client whenever the user presses a key or pointer button or whenever the pointing device is moved These input events can also be synthesized from other non standard I O devices For example a pen based handwriting recognition engine might generate keyboard events 3 3 Representation of pixel data Initial interaction between the RFB client and server involves a negotiation of the for mat and encoding with which pixel data will be sent This negotiation has been de signed to make the job of the client as easy as possible The bottom line is that the server must always be able to supply pixel data in the form the client wants However if the client is able to cope equally with several different formats or encodings it may choose one which is easier for the server to produce Pixel format refers to the representation of individual colors by pixel values The most common pixel formats are 24 bit or 16 bit true color where bit fields within the pixel value translate directly to red green and blue intensities and 8 bit colour map where an arbitrary mapping can be used to translate from pixel values to the RGB intensities Encoding refers to how a rectangle of pixel data will be sent on the wire Every rectangle of pixel data is prefixed by a header giving
