Chapter 8. Client Platforms
8.2.2. Installing the Mac OS X Client
The client for Mac OS X can be found in the directory client-osx in the Client Bundle. To install the
client, follow these steps:
1. Double-click on the file tl-4.3.0_4538-client-osx.iso.
2. Drag the "ThinLinc Client" application to an application folder of your choice.
3. Eject "ThinLinc Client".
8.2.3. Running the Mac OS X Client
To start the ThinLinc Client, double click on the client application. The client can also be added to and
started from the Dock.
8.2.4. Command and Alt Keys on Mac OS X
The Alt key (also know as the Option key) behaves very differently on OS X compared to its behaviour
on other platforms. It closely resembles the PC AltGr key, found on international keyboards. ThinLinc
therefore treats these keys in a special manner on Mac OS X in order to provide a good integration
between the client and the remote ThinLinc system.
Whenever either of the Alt keys are pressed, ThinLinc will behave as if AltGr was pressed. The left
Command key is used as a replacement for Alt in order to use shortcuts like Alt+F. The right Command
key retains its behaviour of acting like the Super/Windows key.
