Launcher (cythrough-prefs)

• Connect -- authenticate, then the Icon Catalog fills.
• Double-click a catalog icon -- launch that published app only.
• Double-click a Running tile -- reattach that live app when free.
• File > Change Server -- back to the Connect face.
• File > Refresh Catalog -- live only while connected.
• Right-click catalog icon -- Materialize On Desktop (and related).
• Right-click Running entry -- Kill this app.
• Esc -- close a dialog. One default button per surface.

Viewer (cythrough)

Remoted apps keep their own keys. The viewer has no Motif chrome of its own. Close a remoted window to send WM_DELETE to the published app. Ctrl-C on the CLI viewer sends BYE and detaches; apps may keep running until Session Stop or Kill.

Knock and Auth

Type a knock secret or leave it empty. Empty means the standing crypto-off / static-port path for that profile. Username and password are per-server in the address book. Prefer password files over typing secrets into shell history; see Command Line.
