Keywords: initialize, suntools, xinit Message-ID: <1091@ucrmath.UCR.EDU> Date: 7 Jun 89 01:12:27 GMT Sender: news@ucrmath.UCR.EDU Reply-To: yakker@ucrmath.ucr.edu (The Rastafari Yakker) Followup-To: yakker@ucrmath.ucr.edu Organization: University of California, Riverside Lines: 21 Our school has been running under Sun OS 4.0.1 (??) for some time now, and we have been using Suntools and Sunview on our 3/50's and 3/60's. Since I am so used to using .rootmenu and .sunview for my startup menus and screen initializations, can anyone tell me if there is a way to do this in Xwindows? Our system is designed right now to start up using xinit, and from there opening up the X server. Since the manual pages are being fixed at present, and there is no way to read anything on this topic, can some kind soul please direct me in the right path? I would really appreciate it, since I am getting tired of having to open up all of those materials constantly in order to have what I want on the screen. ---------------------------------------*-------------------------------------- "Behold, God, is my salvation, I | Internet: yakker@ucrmath.ucr.edu will trust, and not be afraid.." |+| UUCP: ...ucsd!ucrmath!yakker |+|+| "What lies behind you and what lies |+|+| The University of California before you pales insignificant when |+| at Riverside compared to what lies within you.." | Department of Computer Science ---------------------------------------*--------------------------------------
