Russ Cox once claimed he had ported VNC client to Plan 9 without much
difficulty, but with an 8-bit colour-map restriction, if memory serves.
Russ, is it so easy I can do it without help, or would you be able to
send me the details (I hope in my haste I have not overlooked the obvious,
that the changes are already in-the-box)?
Thanks. Lucio.

That was me. In fact I wrote a Plan 9 VNC viewer from scratch (685 lines
of C) rather than trying to port the Unix/Xwindows one (3188 lines).
It was quite straightforward to do the communication and display parts
from the spec. My minimal interface could be made more useful by adding
a way to pan across the screen if the viewer window is too small, and
a way to emulate extra keyboard ops required by some host systems.
