synergy software - multi computer

Do you have multiple computer and you are changing keyboard/mouse to view them? Here is the relief from Open Source software Synergy Synergy works on cross platform.

In one of my earlier projects, we have a developer write a program for Windows and named it 'pauli' (girl friend's name?). I recall the developer telling that this causes security threat - not sure if this is still existing in Synergy.

Hey, cross platform? Not a problem!! I am using this program on windows and Mac OS and it works well. From the tar ball, Linux seems to be supported as well.

ஒடிய நீளன்தனை ஒரெட்டு கூரக்கி
கூரதில் ஒன்டை தள்ளி குன்ட்ரதின் பதியை சேர்தல்
நீடிய கருனம் தனே.
