Description-en: tool to detach/reattach running X programs
Xpra gives you the functionality of GNU Screen for X applications.
.
It allows the user to view remote X applications on their local machine, and
disconnect and reconnect from the remote machine without losing the state of
the running applications.
.
Unlike VNC, these applications are "rootless". They appear as individual
windows inside your window manager rather than being contained within a single
window.
