This is X-Windows in view mode; [Up]
Date: Sun 22-Oct-1989 18:07:45 From: Unknown Subject: X Windows Some time ago mention was made of an implementation of X windows running under Next Step. I believe the project was undertaken by someone at or from MIT. Did anything ever come of this effort? Is some form of access to X available through any other avenues? Question 2: is anyone aware of a SLIP port to the NeXT? -------------------------------- Rick Morrison | {alberta,uw-beaver,uunet}!ubc-cs!morrison Dept. of Computer Science| morrison@cs.ubc.ca Univ. of British Columbia| morrison%ubc.csnet@csnet-relay.arpa Vancouver, B.C.

I have an old ethernet card in it and run Karn code . It is hooked to the next via the ethernet and etc etc. I suspect that the ethernet line for the NeXT is a much better way than via the rs232 whose driver is probably less than optimum. All runs well and there is no pain.
