<title>Captain ALM - readme - CCGS RDP Release 1.5</title>
</head>
<body bgcolor=#ffffff>
<h1><U>Captain ALM - readme - CCGS RDP Release 1.5</u></h1>
<p></p>
<h1><b>THIS IS NOT FREE RDP F*S (Search for RDP Wrap on github for that)</b></h1>
This is for connecting to the chatham and clarendon grammar school RDP servers.
This is the final release.
And on the note of using the trademark, I'm no longer at the school and not directly affiliated with it.
However, this connection system is designed to facilitate easy connection launching to the school's RDP servers therefore this may be a valid case of use as it is only for this school.
This was made while I was at this school.
