there is currently a X11R3 that runs inside a NeXTStep window.  this version
works fine but i believe that it was ported by a student and not officially
supported by anyone.  in the november 26, 1990 issue of UNIX Today! there is
an article that states that Pencom Software has plans to port and sell
versions of X11R4 and OSF Motif for the NeXT.  Pricing on the products is
not currently available but Pencom can be reached at 512-343-1111.
