Hello Xperts...

I'm somewhat new to X/Motif and am being forced to learn everything the
hard way, since my company won't send me for training.  I've come up with
a couple of questions - if anyone can help, I'd appreciate it.

1) What are the x-y coordinates based on?  Is it pixels?  Where is 0,0 -
   the upper left corner of the screen?  
2) I'm using UIL to define the interface as much as possible, and X calls
   to supplement it.  Using UIL, how do you specify that mnemonics should
   be underscored on the display?  Since UIL expects the numerical 
   representation of the character, rather than a char string with a "_"
   in front of it (as can be done from C when programming the mnemonic),
   there's no way I can find to tell it to underscore the mnemonic.

Please send any responses directly to me.  I've sent mail twice to 
xpert-request to get on the mailing list and still have gotten no
response/confirmation (is anyone listening?).

Thanks much,
Dan Stewart
