First, let me suggest to those who are diving into XView that you have
a copy of the SunView documentation along side you as well. It will
answer many questions that just aren't covered in the XView docs. This is
especially essential for those of us who avoided learning SunView in the past (I
always knew I would pay a price :)

Now for my questions:

(I haven't retrieved the very latest XView sources so please excuse me if 
some of these questions are not relevant to what is on expo)

1) Why does the colormap not have the grey levels (100 or so) that are found
in the X11 rgb map?

2) The action list contains the notion of DRAG_LOAD. Is this functionality
implemented yet? If so, how is it activated? If not, how can I fake it?

3) -this may be basic- How do I send an event to another window or process
assuming I have its' XView id? It's XID?

4) In light of (3) how does one get the list of children that belong to a
window to which I have the XView id?
