[comp.windows.x] Porting X11 R4 xterm to AIX 3.1

schorr@ead.dsa.com (Andrew J. Schorr) (11/08/90)

The subject says it all: has anyone done this?
I have the R4 libraries running under AIX 3.1, but xterm
is slightly more system-dependent than your average X11 
client.

I naively compiled it, but it just kind of sits there, without
doing anything (i.e. never pops up a window, etc.).  Any
help would be appreciated.

Thanks in advance,
Andy

See the xterm patch posted by Bill Moran. I have placed it for
annoymous ftp on cs.utk.edu in pub/ibm_rs6000/R4xterm.patch .

There is also a set of lpd sources that work. I would love to begin
a collection BSDemia for this machine.
(Anybody got SunOS 3.5 up on it yet?)

  While we're talking about X type programs has anyone ported Xview to the
RS/6000?  I remeber seeing some discussion a few months ago, but I haven't
heard anything recently.
