Hi,

Does anyone of you out there in netland have any words of wisdom on 
converting Silicon Graphics GL based applications to PHIGS.  It is
begining to look like I may be porting a half dozen applications to
a DEC 5000 workstation sometime in the next calendar year.  What I
would like to know is what kind of traps am I likely to run into, and
what is the general difficulty level.  I am very familiar with the
applications and GL, and have a basic understanding of PHIGS but have
yet to write any PHIGS applications.

Thanks & B Cing U

Buck
