[comp.windows.x] Do you use NeWS/X

grunwald@foobar.colorado.edu (Dirk Grunwald) (02/15/91)

I need to find a couple of people who:

	(1) use xtex
	(2) use NeWS/X (OpenWindows?) on Sun machines
	(3) have the Athena widgets installed
	(4) use postscript via 'psfig' in their TeX documents
	(5) have time to kill


Someone sent me the patches for OpenWindows postscript support for
Xtex.  I want to insure that I didn't break things when I patched it
in (already found a couple of my mistakes), and that it's sufficiently
general. The current tar of SeeTeX-2.16.2.tar on foobar.colorado.edu
has that code in it; please snag it, try it and send me comments.
Other things to try are the NoImake installation option and automatic
font installation (See Install-2.16.2.ps and Imake.Config for info).

If you're not interesting in testing it, please don't get 2.16.2 yet,
it'll be released as 2.17 when it's working properly.

As a general rule, it would be useful if people offering ftp-able code
would give the dotted-decimal addresses as well as names since Internet
name-servers have a distressing habit of being incomplete.  In this
specific case I can't find a name-server that knows about foobar.colorado.edu.
