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.
