I use a window system designed before bitmapped displays were actually available. My windows are described in terms of their vertices and cursor movements, each of which is mailed to me on a punched card. I often go down to the Postal Dispatch Office to hand the next horseman a ButtonDown request and a canteen of water for his trip. After another month of this interaction, I expect to complete the first move against my computer in our play-by-mail chess game. Bill gibson@hplabsz.hpl.hp.com user's inner face
