xgks comes with X11R4. It lives in contrib/toolkits. The latest version
can be pulled from unidata.ucar.edu [128.117.140.3] via anonymous FTP.
The file name is pub/xgks.tar.Z.

There is also a xgks mailing list. To subscribe contact :-

		 xgks-request@unidata.ucar.edu

Finally a xgks widget has been written by Neil Bowers. I can't remember 
where he uploaded it to but his mail address is neilb@dcs.leeds.ac.uk

Hope this helps
