Hi there, Does anyone have/know of a X11 to X10 window dump converter. I would also be interested in any X conversions progs. For example something to convert X10 bitmaps to X11 bitmaps and vice/versa. Or maybe something that converts X10 and X11 dumps into some other format (not Postscript or PBM, I've got those already). I would appreciate all help. Please reply by mail to one of the following addresses. hackeron@athena.mit.edu hgilliam@krazy-kat.media.mit.edu hgilliam@cheshire.media.mit.edu hgilliam@snagglepuss.media.mit.edu hgilliam@tigger.media.mit.edu hgilliam@media-lab.media.mit.edu Thanks | Harris L.

About x10 to x11 conversion: I've got in x11r2 a program called x10tox11. The man page that comes with it is at best cryptic. Could somebody explain what it can do, how to use it ? Thank you very much, Achille Petrilli, Cray Operation

It receives X10 protocol requests, converts them into X11 requests, and vice versa. We've used it for a little while here; it seems to work pretty well. We've run xrn and a few other x10 programs under X11 with it and had only minor difficulties, to wit: 1) the window manager (we use twm, but it might be the same for all X11 window managers) doesn't seem to realize that this thing exists. It can't be moved around the screen, etc. 2) the graphics are not sharp (of course, it's just an emulation of X10 on X11; perfection is not expected) 3) it's pretty slow (again, the cost of emulation) Other than that, we've found it very useful.
