DEC calls it VWSDECW Version 1.0 -> very nice but performance is going down ... VWSDECW does is all I need - most of our applications are running on VWS - we have some X11 programmers - they are using DECWindows under VWS now. Hope this might help some people Matthias ================== ---------------------------------------------------------------------- | Matthias Ress | | Gesellschaft fuer Mathematik und DV | | Project E.I.S. | | P.O.Box 1240 | | D-5205 St.Augustin 1 | | West Germany | | | | phone: (0049) 2241/14-2301 | | E-mail: ress@eis.gmd.dbp.de | | ress%gmdeis@gmdzi.UUCP | | PSI%026245224124140::RESS | | telex: 8 89 469 gmd d | | telefax: (0049) 2241/14-2889 | ----------------------------------------------------------------------
