[comp.windows.x] Window System Abstraction

markf@zurich.ai.mit.edu (Mark Friedman) (07/10/90)

Does anyone have any information on any window system programming
interfaces which can be linked with different libraries to run under
either X or MacOS. 

This request is not for me, so I don't know all of the details, but
the project that needs this is looking to create a user interface for
a mac and for workstations running X and would naturally like to avoid
as much reprogramming as possible.

I know about STDWIN, but at last look (The README file is dated May
27, 1988) it was not terribly robust. If it has been improved I would
be interested in its current state. Is there anything else around?

Thanks.

You might try Xvt from a company by the same name in Boulder, CO. Sorry,
I don't have contact information in front of me. I'm sure they are reading
and will provide it.
