Yes the OS X server treats the Mac's Option/Alt key as the X-META key (left or right, works). Is there a current way to send the META key from the windows REAL vnc client?

I don't have any Windows dev tools. Could someone who does grab the modified ClientConnection.cpp file I've got here <http://homepage.mac.com/tophu/ClientConnection.cpp> and compile it with the rest of the vncviewer source (available at <http://www.realvnc.com/dist/vnc-3.3.7-winsrc.zip>.

My modifications add a "Meta Down" and "Meta Up" pair of menu items to
the system menu.  I'm hoping that the meta key will translate to Option
for the MacOS X VNC server.
