I only have experience with XView so please excuse the XView
nomenclature.  In XView, I can create a TEXTSW in which I can put
text, such as the contents of a file.  I would like to be able to
change the style of certain textual regions (i.e. change the color
and/or font of a word), but I cannot do this in XView 2.  Perhaps in
XView 3, I don't know?

Anyway, we've just gotten OLIT 2.5 and I was wondering if this kind of
thing is possible in the OLIT toolkit or the tNt (NeWS) toolkit, which
I don't think we have.  As a side note, is tNt available and is it
bundled with OpenWindows 2, or will I have to wait for OpenWindows 3
(and any idea when *that* will be released?)

Thanks.
