Yannick> Yannick Lallement (lallemen@ese-metz.fr) Yannick, it is not the window manager which would allow you to put the SunView applications, it is the window server. My guess is that you are running Xsun, but that is simply a guess. One server which allows both X and SunView is xnews. It comes as part of SunOS 4.1.x -- -- James Cameron (jc@raven.bu.edu) Signal Processing and Interpretation Lab.
