Hi:

I'm working  at Bellcore,  developing a  hypermedia system  on top of
Kyoto Common Lisp, Suns, and X.  I'm told that the toolkit is the
"library of choice", but I've been frustrated by the lack of
documentation.  I have the 7 chapter toolkit library and widget
documentation, but it's hard to use:  the subroutine parameters are
only sketchily defined, and instructions about how to combine the
invocations are rare.  

Is there any other documentation I can get?  Some sample programs
that illustrate the use of the toolkit (besides xterm)?  Or even an 
update to the stuff I have, dated June 3, 1987?

I've found some typos in this document, btw, that I'm happy to pass
along to whomever wants them.

Any documents or pointers would be appreciated.  If there isn't anything
else, may I address some widget questions (some of which are probably
fairly basic) to this address?

Note: don't use the reply address to this message.  Send instead to
  mcohen@thumper.bellcore.com
since darlene isn't registered.  Tx.
