1. XVT doesnt implement X - it is a set of routines designed to provide a
higher level access to what ever particular windowing system you have
underneath.  It adds a layer which then permits your program to move, with
minimal changes, from character based screens to Mac, OS/2 PM, X, SunView,
etc.  
2. I am sorry.  I should have been more specific when I said Unix utilities. 
I didnt mean ATT utilities.  I meant freely available utilities.  Lint is the
one that Ihave never seen freely available.  Most of the rest are available
from Minix, GNU, BSD freed software, etc.
