In case you don't know what OI is, here's a short description:

	The OI toolkit is a C++ based toolkit for writing X11 applications.
	It has been licensed and is being distributed by AT&T.  Like other
	toolkits, OI provides a basic set of objects used in constructing a
	user interface.  Unlike other toolkits, these objects are generic in
	nature.  The particular appearance and behaviour of an object may be 
	determined at execution time -- the same executable image may run
	under different interaction and appearance models.  OI currently
	supports Motif, and 2D and 3D OPENLOOK.  Subclassing to produce user
	derived classes which will work in all models is easy to accomplish.

	Thanks Tom and Solbourne!  
	
	Gees, wouldn't it be nice if the other people 
	who gave tutorials at the X Conference also
	put Postscript versions of their presentations
	on expo?  ...hint...hint...
