Aside from the built-in X drawing primitives, various vendors are
offering packages (either server extensions or client libraries) for
drawing with GKS, PHIGS, Display PostScript, and others.  Digital
offers all 3 for Digital workstations.  Other vendors are selling PHIGS
and the U. of Lowell is distributing a GKS to educational
institutions.
