or as I understand the author wished it to be recognized as:
"The X Window System: Applications and Programming with the Xt".
Can anyone offer a reference - publisher, ISBN, etc? I'd like to add
a good Xt book to my collection. I thought I had 'em all, but I guess
not.
Also, are the examples from "X Window Applications Programming"
(Johnson/Reichard, MIS Press) available anywhere? The floppy lists
for $29.95, but that may be the cost of mailing, with redistribution
being freely allowed.
I have O'Reilly volumes 1 & 2 (3 is backordered),
Scheifler/Gettys/Newman, Jones, and Johnson/Reichard. Besides Young,
are there any other tomes I should know about to fill up the rest of
the space on my bookshelf?erc@pai.UUCP (Eric Johnson) (08/17/89)

So, if you want the code, you will have to talk to them (phone 1-800-MANUALS in the USA). I do know that the sources ARE copyrighted and most likely MIS will NOT allow free redistribution (ask them, though). As an aside, we did try to reuse as much code as possible, to limit the amount of typing needed (but there is a lot of code). As a reference, the book is: _X Window Applications Programming_ by Eric F. Johnson and Kevin Reichard MIS: Press, 1989 ISBN: 1-55828-016-2 Have fun, -Eric -- Eric F.
