OPEN LOOK is a graphical user interface design, it is not a particular piece of code. It is targetted to be implementable atop various window systems (according to the announcements). It is the equivalent of that which is described in the "Macintosh User Interface Handbook". User interfaces are not code - user interface agents are code. You create a user interface paradigm with artists, not programmers. Flames to /dev/null -Mike

Can someone report on the status of OPEN LOOK? I read some nasty reports in ComputerWorld that Open Look was more or less dead in the water or would be soon --- that is not to say that Sun or AT&T are abandoning, but that it had little chance of becoming a widespread standard. ComputerWorld -- feb. 6, 1989 AT&T's Open Look support vanishing, page 6 "Many analysts concurred last week that Open Look's days are numbered." "Open Look will become a great trivia question." "Tow or three years from now, Open Look will have disappeared." I've been waiting to see it and now people are already pronouncing and perhaps celebrating its death. Is there any substance to these rumors? mark
