Subject: X window system (NOT X window'S') and the ATW/TT
Keywords: OSF/Motif


  Does anyone have any details on the version of X that the
ATW/TT are supposed to have as their graphics environment.  I
assume (hope?) that it is v11.3.  Also, are widget sets
supposed to be supplied?  How about OSF/Motif?  At Unix Expo
here in Toronto, HP has a demo of OSF/Motif and it (the
interface) is impressive.  Personally, I like it a lot better
than Open Look.  Sorry about this Unix stuff in
comp.sys.atari.st, but it does look like we Atarians are going
to be given the chance of having Unix (soon?).

  I realize it is Atari's new policy not to let out details
early, but Atari's own press releases specifically state X (at
least for the ATW).  Can anyone at Atari please set me
straight.
