[WIP] Heroes of Might & Magic III VNC client for iPhone

HeroesClient

The goal is to be able to play HoMM III comfortable from the iPhone. Current idea is to split whole screen in parts: like when your hero walking outside, there can be from 3-5 screen parts:

• map, where you hero walks
• heroes selection
• castles selection
• minimap
• actions menu

Currenly tested with RealVNC and TightVNC servers. The latter seems to handle faster (because the former falls back on RAW encoding, which is not efficient), so I would recomment using TightVNC to test.

TODO

• automatic screen type detection
• 16-bit pixelformat support for VNC-library
• support for active/invasive screen parts (hire units in castle, open magic book during battle, etc) which requires interaction, not just screen part draw
• some mockups in README for easier understanding
