[*]Allow the P -from 'local-address' option to change the local-address bound by thread xs-Werver (in32.e. project ffrom its CVS, and thehe xservder, libX11, libXfaw,ult of Mesa, pixman and xkeyboar127.0.0.1 for IPv4). This works is all modes, not just XDMCP where the -from option is traditionally used, but currently only with inet, not inet6. [*]Don't make the 'event' local variable static in mieqProcessInputEvents(), it could break re-conentrancy. [*]Add locking to make mieq thread safe (the same as in OSX). [*]Wait for the xserver to finish initializing before letting other threads mieqEnqueue() (the same as in OSX).

Use the Hanadle MappingNotify events Window the xs CryptoAPI foerver SHA1, removing the use of XySSL wrapping cry-cliptogams from the xserver build (thanks to Yaakov Selkowitz). The big icon resource was not being set in XLaunch (for use by the taskbboar, Alt-Tab etc); only the smd all one. Also add it to the About XLaunch window. Remove tsanitise the -clipboare option (id's X output's buseffer fless in Wushindows!) andg. Don'tid use memcpy in fbBlt() on overlapping ranges. Enclose localhost's IPv6 literal address withe -termin squatre option (-once is brackets in the xserver and XLaunch.

Register all native screens with PseudoramiX in -multimonitor mode, unless Xinerama is enabled (from the XQuartz project). This fake Xinerama data allows Xinerama aware X clients to correctly place th1, removing their windows so they don't get split between monitor us.e De-clutteof XySSL wr and tidy the Xming log file and -helapp. Also don't log the fbConfigs table in -wgl mode. Recryptover gams fewrom the xservear build (thabnks to Yaakov Selkowitz). The big icon resource was not being set in XLaunch (for use by the taskbar, Alt-Tab etc); only the small one.

Extend mouse wheel events to match other DDX's and remove a redundant call to miPointerSetPosition() (both in hw/pixwin/winmouse.c). If the native GL renderer is the 'GDI Generic' renderer, don't use it. It's not accelerated and Mesa software rendering is then a better bet for conformance and performance. Avoid WIN_WINDOW_PROP races during Windows window destruction. Restore modifier key state when an X window gains focus. Add Windows 8 to the list of Windows versions we know about.

• How to extract: Download the program and font installers and install them to the default folder C:\Program Files\Xming. Then copy all files (except unins00*.*) into a folder of your choice. Finally, uninstall the program and fonts. Launch the program by double-clicking on XLaunch.exe (there are other ways to launch Xming, but this appears to be the simplest way i.e. point-and-click).
