The Athena widgets, and several other libraries, are available from
your local HP software engineer.  The tape is Xcellent (:-) and well
up to HP standards.  The problem I had with Spice is that it requires
X11R3, which HP does not yet support.  I get link errors when the program
looks for colors via the R3 scheme.  Does anyone at HP know when R3
support will be available?  Vendors with 3 letter names are promising it :-)
