Has anyone had experience using Figaro on an SGI? We are trying to develop an application which would take input from the user and draw some Phigs graphics into a GL window. As a simple test, I wrote a simple program which opened up two GL windows (one window had menus attached to it which could draw filled circles--like popup.c) and also opened up a Figaro window from some Figaro code from the examples with the Figaro tapes. Unfortunately, Figaro seemed to take over the screen and when I clicked in the GL window for the menus--nothing came up. In fact, the whole system hung! Is this just a bsd socket problem which will be fixed with version 3.3 or will Figaro never be made compliant with GL like SunPhigs is with Sunview? --
