I am attaching the man page for uw and uwtool for the Vax end, as it was not distributed. If anyone needs the source for the Vax end, please mail me. UW(local) UNIX Programmer's Manual UW(local) NAME uw - unix windowing system for Macintosh SYNOPSIS uw uwtool [ process ] [ arg1 arg2 ... ] DESCRIPTION Uw is a server program on unix that works with the program uw on the Macintosh. It creates a pseudo-terminal for each window, giving the user up to seven `terminals' to work with. The host program multiplexes the output onto one RS-232 line. Uw (on the unix system) with uw on the Macintosh emulate a Lear Siegler ADM-31 terminal (tset adm31), a Tektronix 4010, and a DEC VT52. Each window (on the Macintosh) has its own terminal emulation and can be resized at will; the program keeps an 80x24 line display in memory for each window, but only shows the lower left portion possible. Uwtool can be executed from unix while running uw to create a new window/`terminal.' If no arguments are given, it creates a new `terminal' running csh. If a process is named, it will create a new window with that process running in it, and when that process is terminated the window will disappear. (i.e. `uwtool vi foo' will create a new window with vi, editing the file foo, but the window will go away when vi is exited) Any arguements after the process name are passed as arguements to that process. LIMITATIONS Uw and uwtool are of no use on unix unless uw is being run on the Macintosh. If there is a stream of output in one window there will be lag in recognizing characters typed in another.
