Future syntax for configuring RDP redirection modules
=====================================================

General
-------

All redirection is configured using the -r option. The general syntax
is:

-r <module>:<string>

<module> is the name of the redirection module. The following names
are valid: disk, printer, lptport, comport, clipboard, sound. 

<string> is interpreted by each redirection module. 

The redirection modules are described below.


disk mapping
-------------
Multiple mappings possible: yes
Default: no disk redirected
Syntax: -r disk:<driveletter>=<path>
Example: -r disk:H=/home/johndoe


printer mapping
---------------
Multiple mappings possible: yes
Default: no printers redirected
Syntax: -r printer:<printername>
Example: -r printer:mydeskjet


LPT port mapping
----------------
Multiple mappings possible: yes
Default: no LPT ports redirected
Syntax: -r lptport:<lptport>=<device>
Example: -r lptport:LPT1=/dev/lp0


COM port mapping
----------------
Multiple mappings possible: yes
Default: no COM ports redirected
Syntax: -r comport:<comport>=<device>
Example: -r comport:COM1=/dev/ttyS0


clipboard mapping
-----------------
Multiple mappings possible: no
Default: yes
Syntax: -r clipboard:[yes|no]
Example: -r clipboard:no


sound mapping
-------------
Multiple mappings possible: no
Default: off
Planned syntax: -r sound:[local|off|remote]
Current syntax: -r sound

"local" means "Bring to this computer"
"off" means "Do not play"
"remote" means "Leave at remote computer"

Example: -r sound:remote
