[comp.windows.x] Various things

Has anyone gotten the sample toolkit clients in lib/Xtk/clients/... to
work? I futzed the old resource manager a little, so that I no longer get
those conversion error messages, but I still get an all-white window
instead of a clock or buttons or whatever. Am I missing a resource file
or something? The command line args don't seem to have any effect either.
This is the first change I've had to look at it, so forgive me if it's
something painfully obvious. I'll probably find it feel apropriately stupid
for asking..

Also, does anyone know where to get the archive server sources? I bitched
to RWS awhile back about the inability to get arbitrary ranges of fixes, and
he wrote back that he had no time for that kind of petty hacking. Jeeze.
Some people. Just because he gets hundreds of messages a week and has
thousands of lines of code to support and constantly tweak... :-)

Anyway, if I can get the code, I'll see if there's a clean way of handing
that sort of thing and get the changes back to RWS. So, where to get it?
