At Xhibition'89 I met the fellow who holds the trademark to the name
Xview. John Copeland of Image Network produces troff upgrades and add-ons
(including a very hot troff upgrade called xroff and also some excellent troff
documentation; we're satisfied so far); Xview is an X11R3-based troff page 
previewer.  I think in this case the trademark is enforceable, and he may 
settle quite nicely with Sun.

The names 'Xpr', 'Xpert', 'Xgraph' are those of other Image Network products,
but there's probably not a percentage in enforcing these.


PS: the other trademarks are Xface, Xsell, Xtc, Xcetera, Xletter, Xroff,
Xsim, Xpress, Xclass, Xbooks, Xscan.
