Huntsville, AL Lines: 29 I am quite familiar with Xlib programming in general, but am very naive with respect to toolkits, and in this case, Xt. I was fiddling with a program called xtartan that I ported to our system that makes use of "translation bindings" for interactive commands. I must be missing something because I have not been successful in getting the interactive commands to function. Below is an excerpt from the man page that describes the "translation bindings" and their functions: The standard translation bindings are: CtrlC : exit()\n\ :? : help()\n\ :h : help()\n\ :n : next()\n\ :N : next() name()\n\ :p : previous()\n\ :P : previous() name()\n\ :q : exit()\n\ :t : info()\n\ :* : scale(+1)\n\ :/ : scale(-1)\n\ :+ : lineWidth(+1)\n\ :- : lineWidth(-1)\n\ How do I apply this once the client is running, i.e., how do I interpret this description? Any info on this would be greatly appreciated. Christopher C.
