[comp.windows.x] X implementations

twolf@homxb.ATT.COM (T.WOLF) (01/19/89)

Can someone point me to a Reference book on XProtocol packet format?  Also,
I would like to find out for which network protocols X has been implemented.
So far, I've seen TCP/IP, DECNet, and SLIP (Serial IP I assume).  What others
exist?  Are there X implementations for X.25 (or other ISO-type protocols), for
example?

Any info would be appreciated.

If you really want a "book", get the Digital Press book, "X Window System:
C Library and Protocol Reference".  If you want essentially equivalent
source, look in the source documention in the MIT R3 distribution.

CHAOS.  I'm not aware of X.25 or OSI implementations.
