As I understand it, CXL library does NOT support graphic windows.
However, there was a package posted recently on c.b.i.p under the name
TEGL which is a graphic window system. I am contemplating buying it,
but I'd like to hear from people on the net on the quality of the
pacakge. I am in particulary worried about the amount of memory left
after TEGL has opened a couple of windows....
Please reply by mail, and I'll summarize to the net if asked to do so.
