-====== Usage of PyHoca-GUI  (an alternative X2go client applet ) ======
-The name PyHoca is a word play combining two powerful entities: Python and Phoca (mascot of X2go, Latin species name for seals).
-PyHoca-GUI is a client implementation for X2go using the project's Python API (module) [[Python-X2go]]. PyHoca-GUI uses wxPython for rendering graphical desktop elements (menus, dialog boxes etc.).
-PyHoca-GUI is designed as a very minimal GUI that behaves very similar to GNOME's network manager applet (nm-applet). It appears as a small Phoca icon (a little seal) that docks to your systray panel (also called notification area) and allows you to manage multiple X2go sessions simultaneously.
-===== PyHoca-GUI Command Line Arguments =====
-PyHoca-GUI has a man page. Considering that it actually is a GUI there are quite some command line options to choose from.
-On your GNU/Linux system execute
-     $ man pyhoca-gui
-An always up-to-date html version of the pyhoca-gui man page can be be retrieved from the X2go Git repository: [[http://code.x2go.org/gitweb?p=pyhoca-gui.git;a=blob_plain;f=.build_man2html/html/man1/pyhoca-gui.1.html|man pyhoca-gui]].
-===== Launching PyHoca-GUI =====
-You can launch PyHoca-GUI by typing ''pyhoca-gui'' on the command line (from a terminal) or by starting it from your desktop's application menu (topic: Internet).
-PyHoca-GUI will appear on your desktop as a small icon that docks into your systray (as the GNOME applet for Network Manager does). Find this icon---it looks like a little white seal on grey background.
-===== Profile Manager =====
-PyHoca-GUI uses the same configuration files as an x2goclient.
-Thus PyHoca-GUI should work out of the box for most setups and user profiles on a System with a working x2goclient configuration.
-If you are new to X2go and try PyHoca-GUI first, then you have to add a session profile for your (first) X2go server.
-If you //right-click// on the PyHoca-GUI icon you are offered a sub-menu called //Profile Manager//. From there, you can access all your defined X2go session profiles.
-===== Starting Sessions with PyHoca-GUI =====
-To start a PyHoca-GUI session //left-click// on the PyHoca icon and then choose **Authenticate X2go Server** to be presented with a list of existing session profiles.
-After you have authenticated against one of your configured server session profiles, you can access the authenticated session profile by //left-clicking// the PyHoca-GUI icon. Navigate through the GUI's menu from there, most of it should be self-explanatory.
