You see the problem is, I want to start programming in the x-windows protocol, whatever that means. Essentially, I want to learn how to create a window(s) and work use graphics in that window while I am programming in C. I'd like the input/output of the graphics of that screen controlled by both the mouse and the keyboard. The problem is, that no one here at my school seems to be able to help me, or at the very least send me in the right direction. The documentation on x-windows seems to be pretty scarce here. My guess is that I merely need to know what library files to access and what commands are available to me. If anyone out there has any info to help me I would greatly appreciate it. I plan to do all my programming on a SPARC station 1 that uses SunOS 4.1 and I run X11R4, if more info is needed please ask, and thanx in advance. Len
