Hi experts,
in porting a PC version of a crystallographic visualization program I have
a problem which may be trivial for the expert but isn't for me:
in addition to graphics my program does a lot of ascii output which I
want to display on a separate window. However, I don't want to fiddle with font,
scrolling etc. definitions and use a default like the vt100. So I tried
xterm. How can one include xterm in an application program and make sure
that it will run on various systems (we have Convex, DEC stations, Mips...) ?
Is there a better way to open/close a separate ascii window?
Further, my program system is a mixture of fortran (numerics) and C
(X11) code where the ascii output comes from the fortran part. How do I
define the fortran unit number for a window opened with xterm?
Any suggestions are appreciated. Thanks.
Klaus Hermann
