I noticed that the automatic clipboard transfer does not support unicode/special characters. This is something I really could use, so I would like to request this feature. Gbridge is great, with our without this. Keep up the good work!

Can you provide more detail? What is automatic clipboard transfer? Thanks!

Clipboard transfer is part of VNC I guess.
It means that something you copy to the clipboard on the remote computer is also copied to the clipboard on the local computer, and the other way around. This is a great option, but during the transfer the unicode characters are not transported correctly. So the copy and paste operation does not provide the expected result. The clipboard copying can be disable in the Connection options menu that you get by right clicking the top bar of a VNC window.

I hope this explains my point...

(Updated to make remote and local computer more clear
the remote computer is computer that is remote controle
the local computer is computer one is actually using to remote control another computer)

Here an example:
I copy this text to the clipboard on the remote computer:
<1>早上</1><2>zǎoshang</2><3>early morning</3>
the clipboard is transfered to the local computer incorrectly, so I get.
<1>??</1><2>zaoshang</2><3>early morning</3>

I copy this text to the clipboard on the local computer:
<1>早上</1><2>zǎoshang</2><3>early morning</3>
the clipboard is transfered to the remote computer incorrectly, so I get.
<1>??</1><2>zaoshang</2><3>early morning</3>

I do not know how other objects, like images etc, behave when copied.

Great, thanks!
