+x11spice connects a running X server as a Spice server.
+
+It owes a debt to the excellent x11vnc project, from the libvncserver
+project. That project proved that this could be done, and done well.
+Some of the logic, notably that of scan.c, was inspired  by the code
+in x11vnc.
+
+Example: launch a spice server on a remote pc (where x11spice is
+installed) via ssh, redirect the output locally and connect to it with
+spicy
+
+  ssh $remote_host -L 5900:localhost:5900 "x11spice --allow-control --display :0 --password=whatever"
+
+and then locally
+
+  spicy -h localhost -p 5900
