I have a couple of questions and if anyone could help I would appreciate it
very much.

I am working on an x-windows application (using X11R2) and have difficulties 
trying to use the toolkit routines with the rest of my existing X-Lib 
program. 

For example, if I create a text widget how do I get the system to process it's 
events. (Creating the text widget in itself does bring up the window but the 
capability for editing text just isn't there.)

Also, is it possible to have multiple processes running under XWindows, and 
if so, is it a good idea, and what problems might one encounter?

One final question: Is it a good idea to build menus using the X-Toolkit
routines (i.e., spring loaded widgets), and how is this done? (The X-Toolkit
documentation suffers greatly)
