[comp.windows.x] Animation under X

IRISH@cc.utah.edu (10/24/90)

We are trying to set up our Stardent computer to do animation recording onto
video.  The particular animation controller that we have is the Lyon-Lamb
Mini-vas.  I am hoping that someone has already done this under X.  If you know
of a PD package that does animation using this controller or any other under
X, please send mail to dirish@math.utah.edu.  I will collect what I hope to
be a complete list and post it.  If you know of an anonymous ftp site which
has the package, please include that information.

Thanks in advance,
Dudley Irish

I am looking for animation software under X.

I want to know X performances, to compare with SiliconGraphics.

On Silicon, there is a tool named MOVIE that can animate Silicon pictures.
The files have a RGB extension. They can be created bye ICUT, SNAPSHOT, or
SCRSAVE and displayed with IPASTE. 

I developped a tool that can convert images from PPM to RGB and RGB to PPM.
So I can animate RLE, PPM, TIFF, GIF pictures on Silicon with MOVIE. And I
would like to compare with X.

Thanks.
