Volumes 4 and 5, "X Toolkit Programming Manual" and "X Toolkit
Reference Manual" are in final production and looking terrific!  
They'll be available the first of January.  Promise.  

We're also planning to rewrite these books using Motif examples
(currently they include Athena widget examples only).  
The Motif version should be available in the spring.

A new "Widget Reference Manual", also slated for release in the
spring, will cover Open Look, Motif and Athena widgets.  

Do your receive our catalog?  If not, send me your postal address
and I'll see that it gets included in our X mailing list.
