Woops!  I'm glad this came up.  I discovered, due to this note, that
the latest version of getX11 (still not, by any means, perfect) did
not make it into the toolkit distribution.  I have sent the new copy
(dated Jan 1988, not really so new) to the current toolkit maintainer,
so that copies sent out from "now" on should have this newer version
in it.  You can also write to me (should I really do this?) at the
address below, and I will mail it to you.  The source is about 78K
bytes, so some mailers may choke on it.

If anyone has gotten some of the bugs out of it, I would greatly
appreciate receiving the fixes back so that we can incorporate it into
the next release (whenever that may be).

This is also a plea: if you have a copy of the toolkit, and have not
sent us (toolkit-request@cs.utah.edu) a note to be added to the
mailing list, please do.  This (updated getX11) is exactly the sort of
information that will be sent to the mailing list.
