| Currently, Guacamole supports file transfer for VNC, RDP, and SSH, using either the |
| native file transfer support of the protocol or SFTP.</p><p>Files can be transferred to the remote computer by dragging and dropping the files |

| Guacamole's SSH support can be used with the <span class="command"><strong>guacctl</strong></span> utility. The |
| <span class="command"><strong>guacctl</strong></span> utility is a simple shell script <a class="link" href="https://raw.githubusercontent.com/apache/guacamole-server/master/bin/guacctl" target="_top">included with Guacamole</a> which allows you to use and configure file |
| transfer directly from the command line within the SSH session:</p><div class="informalexample"><pre class="screen"><code class="prompt">$</code> <strong class="userinput"><code>guacctl</code></strong> |
| <code class="computeroutput">guacctl 0.8.0, Guacamole SSH session control utility. |
| Usage: guacctl [OPTION] [FILE]... |

| Guacamole because they are reserved by the operating system (<span class="keycap"><strong>Ctrl</strong></span>+<span class="keycap"><strong>Alt</strong></span>+<span class="keycap"><strong>Del</strong></span> or <span class="keycap"><strong>Alt</strong></span>+<span class="keycap"><strong>Tab</strong></span>, for example) or by the web browser. If you press one of these reserved |
| combinations, the effect will be observed locally, not remotely, and the remote desktop |
| will receive only some of the keys.</p><p>Guacamole provides its own, built-in on-screen keyboard which allows keys to be sent |
| to the remote desktop without affecting the local system. If the device you're using |
| does not have certain keys which the remote desktop depends on, such as the arrow keys |
| or <span class="keycap"><strong>Ctrl</strong></span>, you can use the on-screen keyboard for this, too. You can show |
| the on-screen keyboard by selecting the "On-screen keyboard" option from the |
| menu.</p><p>Clicking (or tapping) the buttons of the on-screen keyboard has the same effect as |
| pressing the same buttons on a real keyboard, except that the operating system and |
| browser will not intercept these keypresses; they will only be sent to the remote |
| desktop.</p></div><div class="section"><div class="titlepage"><div><div><h2 class="title" style="clear: both"><a id="scaling-display"></a>Scaling the display</h2></div></div></div><p><a id="idm46420847771680" class="indexterm"></a>Guacamole will default to shrinking or expanding the remote display to fit |
| the browser window exactly, but this is not necessarily ideal. If the remote display is |
| much larger than your local display, the screen may be impossible to see or interact |
| with. This is especially true for mobile phones, whose screens need to be small enough |
| to fit in the average hand.</p><p>You can scale the display on touch devices by using the familiar pinch gesture. Place |
| two fingers on the screen and bring them closer together to zoom out or further apart to |
| zoom in.</p><p>If your device lacks a touch screen, you can also control the zoom level through the |
| menu. The controls for zooming in and out are located at the bottom of the menu. The |
| current zoom level is displayed between two "-" and "+" buttons which control the zoom |
| level in 10% increments.</p></div><div class="section"><div class="titlepage"><div><div><h2 class="title" style="clear: both"><a id="touch-devices"></a>Mobile or touch devices</h2></div></div></div><p>Guacamole is designed to work equally well across all HTML5 browsers, including those |
| of mobile devices. It will automatically handle input from a touch screen or a |
| traditional mouse (or both, if you happen to have such a gifted computer), and provides |
| alternative input methods for devices which lack a physical keyboard.</p><div class="section"><div class="titlepage"><div><div><h3 class="title"><a id="touch-mouse"></a>Mouse emulation</h3></div></div></div><p><a id="idm46420847765920" class="indexterm"></a>In the case that your device has a touchscreen and lacks a mouse, |
| Guacamole will emulate a mouse for the sake of interacting with remote desktops that |
| expect mouse input. By default, Guacamole uses "absolute" mouse emulation. This |
| means that the mouse pointer is positioned at the location of each tap on the |
| screen.</p><p>In both absolute and relative modes, you can click-and-drag by tapping the screen |
| and then quickly placing your finger back down. This gesture only causes the mouse |
| button to press down, but does not release it again until you lift your finger back |
| up.</p><div class="section"><div class="titlepage"><div><div><h4 class="title"><a id="absolute-mouse-emulation"></a>Absolute mode (touchscreen)</h4></div></div></div><p>Absolute mouse emulation is the default as it tends to be what people expect |
| when using a touch device to interact with applications designed for mouse |
| input.</p><p>Each tap on the screen is translated into a left-click at that position. |
| Right-clicking is accomplished through pressing and holding your finger on the |
| screen. If parts of the remote display are off-screen, you can drag your finger |
| around the screen to pan the off-screen parts back into view.</p><p>Although absolute mouse emulation works generally well, a finger makes for a |
| very inaccurate pointing device. To address this, Guacamole also provides |
| "relative" mouse emulation. Relative mouse emulation provides a way to deal with |
| the need for accurate pointer control, when a true pointer device is not |
| present.</p><div class="informalfigure"><div class="mediaobject"><img src="images/touchscreen.png" width="135" /></div></div></div><div class="section"><div class="titlepage"><div><div><h4 class="title"><a id="relative-mouse-emulation"></a>Relative mode (touchpad)</h4></div></div></div><p>Guacamole's relative mouse emulation behaves similarly to the touchpad present |
| on most modern laptops. You drag your finger across the display to move the |
| mouse pointer, and tap the display to left-click. The pointer moves relative to |
| the motion of your finger. Right-clicking is accomplished with a two-finger tap, |
| and middle-clicking with a three-finger tap. The mouse scroll wheel can be |
| operated by dragging two fingers up or down.</p><p>Because the relative mouse emulation reserves so many gestures for the |
| different mouse buttons and actions, common touch gestures like panning and |
| pinch-to-zoom will not work while relative mouse emulation is enabled. Instead, |
| the screen will automatically pan to keep the mouse pointer in view, and you can |
| zoom through the buttons in the menu.</p><div class="informalfigure"><div class="mediaobject"><img src="images/touchpad.png" width="135" /></div></div></div></div><div class="section"><div class="titlepage"><div><div><h3 class="title"><a id="text-input"></a>Typing without a physical keyboard</h3></div></div></div><p>Many mobile devices lack a physical keyboard entirely, and instead provide their |
| own on-screen keyboards. As these are not true keyboards per se and do not produce |
| key presses, Guacamole's text input mode is required for typing on these |
| platforms.</p><p>"Text input" allows input of keystrokes based on the input of text. Choosing "Text |
| input" tells Guacamole to infer keystrokes by tracking text entered, rather than |
| relying on actual key presses. Guacamole will instead determine the combination of |
| keypresses necessary to produce the same pattern of input, including |
| deletions.</p><p><a id="idm46420847750064" class="indexterm"></a>If you wish to type via an IME (input method editor), such as those |
| required for Chinese, Japanese, or Korean, text input mode is required for this as |
| well. Such IMEs function through the explicit insertion of text and do not send |
| traditional key presses. Using text input mode within Guacamole thus allows you to |
| use a locally-installed IME, without requiring the IME to be installed on the remote |
| desktop.</p></div></div><div class="section"><div class="titlepage"><div><div><h2 class="title" style="clear: both"><a id="preferences"></a>Changing preferences</h2></div></div></div><p>User preferences can be changed within the settings screen. These preferences are |
| stored locally within the browser, so if you use multiple computers to access Guacamole, |
| you can have different settings for each location. The settings screen allows users to |
| change the language of the Guacamole interface, to change the default input method used |
| by Guacamole connections, and to change the default mouse emulation mode for if a touch |
| device is used. If you have sufficient permissions, you may also change your password, |
| or administer the system.</p><div class="informalfigure"><div class="screenshot"><div class="mediaobject"><img src="images/guacamole-preferences.png" width="540" /><div class="caption"><p>Guacamole preferences screen.</p></div></div></div></div><div class="section"><div class="titlepage"><div><div><h3 class="title"><a id="display-language"></a>Display language</h3></div></div></div><p>The Guacamole interface is currently available in English, Dutch, French, German, |
| Italian, and Russian. By default, Guacamole will attempt to determine the |
| appropriate display language by checking the language preferences of the browser in |
| use. If this fails, or the browser is using a language not yet available within |
| Guacamole, English will be used as a fallback.</p><p>If you wish to override the current display language, you can do so by selecting a |
| different language within the "Display language" field. The change will take effect |
| immediately.</p></div><div class="section"><div class="titlepage"><div><div><h3 class="title"><a id="changing-password"></a>Changing your password</h3></div></div></div><p>System administrators can restrict the ability of individual users to change their |

| <span class="emphasis"><em>does</em></span> have permission, the preferences screen will contain a |
| "Change Password" section.</p><p>To change your password, you must provide your current password, enter the desired |

| modes. Many of these settings are specifically useful for touch devices, while |
| others are aimed mainly at traditional desktop use. By default, Guacamole will use |
| the keyboard and mouse modes most commonly preferred by users, but you can change |
| these defaults if they do not fit your tastes or your current device.</p><p>The choices available mirror those within the Guacamole menu discussed earlier in |
