[comp.windows.x] MS-WINDOWS vs X-WINDOWS

shardy@teknowledge-vaxc.ARPA (Steve Hardy) (04/29/87)

Can anyone point me at information comparing the
facilities offerred by X-WINDOWS with those offerred
by PC windowsing packages such as MicroSoft-Windows?

Does anyone know of plans to make X-Windows available
under IBM's new OS/2 presentation manager?  (I'm
interested in being able to port X-Window applications
developed on a UNIX machine to final delivery on an IBM-PC.

Are there any style guides as to how to develop attractive,
easy-to-use interfaces using X-Windows (or for that matter
any equivalent windowing package.)

Thanks in advance.
