Voume 7 of the O'Reilly book series is the XView programming manual and
is written by yours truly :-).

Altho this is XView-specific, it is *not* Sun-specific and is directed
towards the X community at large.  Not only does it address programming
in XView, it discusses "X" programming.  That is, it touches upon some
issues relative to more efficient programming using Xlib routines for
graphics (remember, XView just implements a user interface -- it doesn't
write your application).

Disclaimer -- I do not work for Sun Microsystems.  I wrote the
book as an independent contractor.  My comments and opinions
are really my own.
