[comp.sys.sgi] new ui toolkits with 3.2?

After exploring the Workspace Manager on 3.2, I noticed that there
appeared to be an impressive new user interface toolkit.  My question
to SGI is the following: What is the preferred, supported and
documented user interface toolkit for writing applications for the 4D
machines in C?  The only reasonable UI toolkit I've found so far is
the NeWS LiteUI package from Sun which is neither supported nor
bug-free and professional enough for real applications.

The toolkit which was used to construct the workspace and related
programs was deemed by the SGI engineering staff to be unfit for
customer use.  We *will* be providing a high quality user interface
kit sometime during 1990...
