[comp.windows.x.announce] XTrap public availability

coutu@decvax.dec.com (Dan Coutu UEG) (01/12/91)

The XTrap server extension is now available for public use and review.
XTrap provides the ability to do playback and recording of an
interactive user's actions on an X workstation.

In order to use XTrap you must have the source distribution of X11R4
or access to X11R4 compliant windowing source code. The kit is
designed to be restored onto an X11R4 directory heirarchy and will
require rebuilding of your X server (since it is a server extension.)
The kit is pretty much a 'plug and play' option. You will have to
write no additional code to make it work.

The kit is being made available via anonymous ftp from:

gatekeeper.dec.com	pub/X11/contrib/XTrap_v31.tar.Z
expo.lcs.mit.edu		contrib/XTrap_v31.tar.Z

and contains a postscript document which describes the XTrap
architecture, functional specifications, and user level details.
It will be submitted to comp.sources.x in the near future (probably
next week.)
