We recently began shipping our beta X distribution. One of our
customers has a book about the X toolkit. The book includes lots of
examples and references using a library called "Xw". We've looked all
over our X distribution for it, but we can't find it. I'd appreciate
any information about this thing.

I'd appreciate >any information about this thing. Xw is the name for what used to be called the HP widgets. Look under contrib/widgets/Xhp in the X.V11R3 distribution for the X.V11R2 version of Xw. (contrib software tends to be one rev behind) Look on expo.lcs.mit.edu in contrib/Xhp.tar.Z for the X.V11R3 version. (Also available on uunet, osu-cis and other X archive sites) Note that the X.V11R3 version is not supported by HP -- the fixes were made by Martin Friedmann at UMichigan, and by John Carlson @ LLNL. (HP sells the R2 version and a much enhanced version of these widgets became part of Motif, I believe) The R3 version will hopefully be on the R4 tape, but will hopefully work with R4 Xt. (unlike the R2 version which does not work with R3 Xt)
