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 the nm-applet (GNOME network manager). It appears as a small Icon that docks to your systray panel and allows you to manage multiple X2go sessions simultaneously.

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.

PyHoca-GUI will appear on the Screen as a small Icon that docks into your systray (as the Gnome applet for Network Manager does).

Find this Icon. It is the 'accelerated' X from X2go in Ubuntu-like colors).

To start PyHoca left-click on the Icon then choose Authenticate X2go Server to be presented with any existing Session Profiles.

Note: not ordered by development priority

To be added:

• Embedded menu extension for PyHoca-GUI (Client retrieves a menu tree from a Server and allows the User to start remote 'rootless' Applications from a GUI menu).

• Unity Desktop support to be added to PyHoca-GUI.

• Implement VcXsrv on Windows as a replacement for xming.
