>Can anyone provide any info about the Starbase >Graphics to Xwindows converter from Hewlett-Packard? The Starbase to Xwindows converter is a Starbase driver that sends Starbase primitives as Xlib calls, just as a plotter driver writes HPGL or a terminal driver writes escape sequences. It is part of the standard Starbase product, and ships with series 300 HP-UX updates of release 5.5 or later and series 800 updates of release 1.1 or later. The driver is documented in the "Starbase Device Drivers Library Manual". The version that is in releases less than 6.2 on series 300 or 3.0 on series 800 does most output functions, but few input functions. The version in those releases will have almost all Starbase functions, with the most notable exception being color map setting operations. All of the 2D and 3D transformations, viewing models and such are supported by all releases of the driver. Mike Stroyan, [hplabs!]hpfcla!stroyan Disclaimer: I represent myself, not HP.
