[comp.sys.next] X-11 may show up on NeXT

wtm@neoucom.UUCP (Bill Mayhew) (04/15/89)

I've noticed a number of "if X were only available on NeXT" sort of
articles appearing here lately.  Well, Jim Bruce of MIT is
cited in an article on page 6 of the April 10th "PC Week" as saying
that porting X to the Next is in the initial stages.  PC Week says
that it is expected that X windows will be opened from inside of
Display Postscript windows.

Apparently Next and MIT have to agree who is going to do what with
respect to the project so it still very much vaporware, although
completion of the software is hoped for the 3rd quater of 1989.
