[comp.windows.x] Is there an output "tee" for X?

nwc@galileo.shearson.com (Nick Christopher) (03/05/91)

Is there anything like the unix tee command for X applications? 

I want to have the X windows output of an X program to appear on multiple
displays. This way many people at other workstations can view a demo as I give
it on one workstation.  They can not enter input - it should be view only.

Yes.  It's called XMX, an X Protocol Multiplexor.

It does exactly what you describe.

You can ftp it anonymously:
