Just spent 12 hours straight banging my head agenst a decstation trying to learn to use Xlib. So far I managed to make a window. If someone would kindly send me a short piece of commented C code using Xlib to draw some lines and other primitives in a nice, polite window I will probably email you my first born as a small token of my gratitude.

If you're really interested in using raw Xlib, rather than a higher level X programming environment such as DECwindows or OSF Motif, I would strongly recommend that you start with one of the many tutorial books on Xlib. My favorite is *Introduction to the X Window System* by Oliver Jones (published by Prentice-Hall). Ken Lee DEC Western Software Laboratory, Palo Alto, Calif.
