1.  The OPENWINDOWS dbxtool, since it is written in XView, will 
certainly run over X11R4 or OW.

2.  If you're using OW, you can run either the XView version or even
the sunview version.  I'm saying you should, you just *can*.

3.  I'm not 100% as to the legality of running a remote (XView) dbxtool
and displaying it on a non-Sun.  You'd have to check your local Sun sales droid.

4.  Try Saber...


hope this helps,

And might not run over X11R3, depending....

Why would that be any different from running "dbx" when logged in on a
non-Sun dumb terminal (i.e., any dumb terminal, 'cuz Sun doesn't make
dumb terminals)?  If, for instance, you have a tubeless Sun and a bunch
of X terminals, you have no *choice* but to display XView applications
on non-Suns....
