apollo gpr graphics calls to X. Does Apollo publish any documents to help in conversion. Being new to X, I started with "Using the X Window System on Apollo Workstations". I want to run my simulations on a faster workstation and have the graphics display on my local node. Since GPR won't display on a local node from a remote node, any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance,

Robert, The best way to do it is thru reading O'Reilly's manual, 1 and 2 if you want to stick to just X lib but others if you want to do the conversion to toolkit. Apollo has shitty documentation besides a shitty X server (it is sort of R3 on SR10.2) and pre R3 on SR 10.1. Unless you are using MIT's sample server. Most of the things from manual hold true but not always so you will discover. Depending on what kind of Post processor you are using to look at graphics from your simulations(IC circuit simulation ??) it can be a task in itself to convert it to X. Good luck. -- Anshuman Razdan Motorola Sector CAD Internal: razdan@chanakya Austin Tx Internet: razdan@chanakya.sps.mot.com ****************************************************************** * * * PS: All opinions are my own and my employers have their own * * which of course, most probably, in all honesty, as far * * as I know, which sure is a guess, do not coincide with mine. * * * ******************************************************************
