Is there some way of doing this?... /* ---------- */ What I do is to start up Sunview, then start up X11R3 under overview (see overview(1)). To get back to sunview from X11, type . To get back to X11 from Sunview, click on the overview icon. The command to start up X11 from sunview is: overview -w xinit [-geometry XxY] [-fn font] [-- server [-a x] [-t x]] This lets you switch back and forth between X11 (which I use most of the time) and Sunview (which I use mainly to get at the DOS window).
