I have a friend who is currently operating in an MS-DOS environment and will eventually be moving to a UNIX environment. He's currently developing some applications for which X-11 would seem appropriate, and would like to get a look at it (in his current MS-DOS) environment and potentially begin developing applications which would be portable to the UNIX environment. Could you perhaps provide pointers to a.) reading materials; b.) products/ implementations available in the MS-DOS environment; c.) general utility/ robustness/implementation quality? Any information/pointers/help would be greatly appreciated. Please send replys to dgeiger@decwrl.dec.com, since the friend in question has yet to enter the world of electronic communications. Thanks much!! dorothy geiger
