I have Ultrix 4.2 running on a VaxStation II, with the normal workstation DecWindows stuff (no MIT X stuff, etc.). Are there any (preferably public-domain) graphics libraries available that can work with DecWindows and do 3D graphics? I need it to be callable from Ultrix C, and seen in real-time (not like saving PostScript commands to a file, for later print-out, for example). If anyone has a suggestion, please let me know.

Are there any ... deleted text... Are you sure you do not have *any* MIT X stuff like xhost, just to mention one of the most used x commands? Since DECWindows is built on top of X, your comment seems like you are talking with blinds on. -- Philip Yzarn de Louraille Internet: yzarn@chevron.com Research Support Division Unix & Open Systems Chevron Information & Technology Co.

With 4.2 in fact, subsets are X11R4 (i.e. there is even more contrib stuff). As to 3D, the best software is DEC-Phigs+ which will cost you a bundle but it does a lot + its close to being a standard (pending PEX). To the best of my knowledge, none of the public-domain stuff come close. Reha Elci
