so NPDS has some code to export current screen?
if so, could you point me toward the source -- thx.

I'm in process of porting a Java VNC client to Waba.
(it compiles; now for some painful testing)
if I can get this working (and it's speedy enough to be interesting),
I might then port a simple VNC server. initially, that would probably just
export the screen of its own app, but ideally it would export entire Newton
screen (and of course be controllable by remote system).
