   Try OpenWindows Developer's Guide from SUN.  Part number 800-5381-10,
   version 1.1.  This is really a very good package.  It allows you to your
   custom-code to co-exist with generated UI code, an important consideration
   if your UI is constantly evolving.  As far as I know, it can only generate
   C code though.  For $250 it is a definitely worth every $.

Not quite, I think it can also generate C++, and if you have Sun Lisp 4.0,
you can get some Common Lisp/CLOS code.
