Overview: ------------------------------------------------------------ This kit essentially contains the sources of o Kaleb S. Keithley's Xaw3D widget set. This widget set is intended to improve the visual appearance of the common X Athena Widgets. In general it may be used as a replacement for the Xaw widget set. o the X Miscellaneous Utilities (Xmu). o Ghostview-VMS. Ghostview-VMS allows to view postscript files on an X display. As implied by its name, it is derived from ghostview 1.5. o David M. Brooke's VMS port of XFig 2.1.6. XFig allows to draw figures on an X display. Please note that this kit is intended to support Ghostview-VMS and the Xaw3D widget set only. The sources of XFig are included for convenience only. Xaw3D: ------ Apart from changes introduced to provide functionality on OpenVMS, the Xaw3D widget set contained in this kit includes o a modified version of Keith Packard's Layout widget. o a different Scrollbar widget, added to complete the 3D appeareance of the simple widgets. o a modifed version of the Paned widget. The modifications are minimal and are restricted to details of its visual appearance. o a composite 3D widget, Form3D. The original versions of all modified widgets listed above are included. With the exception of the Layout widget this code is in a functional state and may be used in case problems arise with the modified versions. The Xaw3D library will be build as shareable image. Xmu: ---- The X Miscellaneous Utilities are included to make this kit self-contained and to implement all resource converters needed by the Xaw3D clients. The Xmu library will be build as shareable image. GhostView-VMS: -------------- GhostView-VMS is derived from Timothy Theisen's ghostview 1.5 and allows to view postscript files.
