I agree completely with Karl Kleinpaste. I'm one of those foolish
computer types who refuses to search for manuals before trying
something. If we're going to have X terminals some day for our
clerical and secretarial staff, they had better come up with a more
intuitive interface.  I have plunked myself down in front of a
publicly accessible X machine several times and attempted to get it to
do something. Nothing but funny X-shaped cursors and ASCII BELs. Back
to NeWS and SunView...
