> Where can I find some documentation about VEX, the Video Extension to X ?
VEX was released to six alpha sites earlier this summer. Currently,
we are working on the beta release which we expect to send out in August.
There are a few documents that are available now via anonymous ftp
from expo.lcs.mit.edu (18.30.0.212):
VEX Your Hardware (a description of VEX)
VEX Protocol and Encoding, version 5.8
VEX Library, version 1.7
Pleasing the Eye (an article in Unix Review)
Windows and Video: Now They're Talking (an article in Computer
Technology Review)
They are all in postscript format, contained in the file
public/vex-papers.tar.Z
If you don't have ftp access to expo, I can send you the papers via
electronic mail. If you are interested in the beta release, you should
also join the xvideo mailing list so that you will be aware when the
beta release and other papers are made available. You can do this by
sending a mail message to xvideo-request@expo.lcs.mit.edu asking to
become a member of the list.
