I need to access X toolkit functionality from LISP (text
display with scrollbars in particular), and have thus spent a lot
of time trying to get CLUE Version 6.0 to work on a Sun
Sparcstation, but succeeded only in reaching several
distinct dead ends and convincing myself that all were pretty
dead.

Has anyone out there succeeded in bringing CLUE up on a
Sparcstation?  If so, how did you do it?  Was anything non-obvious
involved, or did it just come up with no problems?

Please respond to me and I will summarize any positive
experiences for the net.

Many thanks,
Manny Farber

PS  I used a LISP image for the Sun4 containing PCL and CLX.
Specifically, Sun Common Lisp, Development Environment 3.0.1,
27 October 1988, Sun-4 version for SunOS 4.0, with a Lucid copyright.
