I would love to get my hands on one! We have encounted _AND_ reported a
number of bugs to Sun but the most fatal one is that OpenWindows 2.0
seem to have a bug in the multi server support - it terminates with an
error (Source code is available (from me) if you want to have a go)!
Is there a multi server _XView_ program running out there?

NOTE: multi server means that _one_ program create windows on _several_
servers and when somebody press a button in a window the callback
routine for that button is envoked (You may define the same callback
for a button in all the windows if you want!)

I'll try it (as soon as my schedule allow it - let's say about mid '91 :-)
