Hello Roy ( and you others reading this newsgroup )
To Roy Starkey : Sorry for a late answer. Mail kept bouncing back.
My experiences in x-programming with m2 are limited.
So far I have managed to create a window with a canvas in it.
That worked fine and I suppose the rest of m2 procedures
are going to do so too. Only bad thing I have noticed has
been an enourmous use of space. That most simple single canvas-
window program produced a 1.2 Mb a.out then compiled.
I have been using Sun M2 only.

PS. The Riddle of CONST definition PW_POLYGON_2 = 6; in xview/pixwin.def
is still without a solution. In one reply ( (thank you)s ) I was
told about CCALL. It is in SunM2 too, but I find it hard to use :
1) Converting C-structures to M2-correspondings
2) If c-function wanted is not a hm.. " stantard " c-function
no a.out is produced. Maybe I ought to try with more -l options.

This way you should be able to use the shared libraries for X. Unless, of course, you don't have any shared libraries for X. In any case, Sun's OpenWindows X implementation comes with these shared libs. Best regards, Ben -- uucp: uunet!m2xenix!puddle!2!281!202.6!Ben.Stuyts Internet: Ben.Stuyts@p6.f202.n281.z2.fidonet.org
