Xperts or Sunnies:

Can X11R5 from MIT be built using Sun's SYSV compatibility?  I built it, like
many have, using /usr/bin/cc, /usr/include/* and /usr/lib/*.  But when I try
using /usr/5bin/cc, /usr/5include/* and /usr/5lib/*, the X server hangs!  To be
more precise, xinit, X, twm, and xterm all start and appear on the screen.  But
the pointer just sits there.  Is there something special I must do to get X
build in the SYSV system.

Please email any suggestions to:

Probably to avoid having to design and implement such an algorithm,
since it will be hard to do very much better than compress does, and
even if this is managed, it will probably fail on "unusual" fonts,
like cursor or the xmahjongg font.

Does anyone know of a wire frame modeling library that does
such things as perspective projections; hidden line/surface

Our system has recently installed the Xkernel package from Columbia, and
we were gradually in the process of converting our Sun3's to X terminals
when we encountered the following problem:

While running twm, if a ghost window comes up on the display, and is left
idle without placing it somewhere, then after about 5 minutes, the entire
session is killed, and the terminal returns to the xdm login window.
This happens whether or not twm is the final process run in the user's 
.xsession.  This did *not* occur while running twm under the previous
Sun3 kernel.

Has anyone else had this problem?  Is there an easy solution?

Any help in this matter would be much appreciated.

I guess this is where we differ.  I believe WM_DELETE_WINDOW was introduced
in X11R4.  R4 and R5 servers and window managers are supposed to be upward
compatible with R3 clients.  There are probably many applications that
haven't been significantly enhanced since then (they may have been
recompiled with the R4 or R5 libraries if you're lucky).  I don't think
that these are "broken badly", they're just slightly out of date.

Nowhere in the ICCCM does it say that multi-window clients must implement
WM_DELETE_WINDOW.  It seemed to be an optional protocol to me.  It's
certainly a good idea, but if an application provides other mechanisms to
delete windows then it isn't required.

And even if applications that *should* do WM_DELETE_WINDOW but don't are
broken, I don't feel that it's such a serious bug in the application that
they deserve to crash.  If the user performs an operation that is
documented as deleting a single window, and it causes the application to
die, that's not a Good Thing.  While we can argue that it's the application
developer's mistake, the WM designer certainly isn't helping matters by
performing an XKillClient() when a WM_DELETE_WINDOW was intended.  It's
poor human factors to expand the effect of a request in that manner.

A reasonable compromise could be for the WM manager to try
WM_DELETE_WINDOW.  If it fails, it could put up an alert "Couldn't delete
the specified window.  Should the entire client be killed?"  This is
analogous to the "Do you really want to exit?" alert that many applications
produce when you try to delete their main window.

You didn't run "fixincludes" after installing gcc.  This, among other
things, changes stdlib.h so abort() & exit() have the same declaration
as the builtin versions.

The twm man page documents this behavior precisely.  It says that f.delete
sends the WM_DELETE_WINDOW message, or beeps if the window has not
requested WM_DELETE_WINDOW messages.  "The intent here is to delete a
single window, not necessarily the entire application."

My Kill menu actually has two options: Delete and Destroy.  Delete invokes
f.delete, while Destroy invokes f.kill, which calls XKillClient.

I wasn't complaining about the beep; I think it's the right thing.  I don't
know about you, but I don't want my window manager automatically upgrading
an attempt to delete a single window into an operation that will probably
crash the application (most clients don't seem to have customized XIO
handlers).  I prefer that it beep to tell me that it can't delete the
window; then I can look for something equivalent in the application's UI (a
"Close" menu operation, or a "Dismiss" or "Cancel" button), or decide that
I really want to kill the entire application.

Disagree.  X is not the perfect anything, as far as I've yet seen.

Also, it's not clear whether "user" is the application programmer or
the application user.

Two enlightening snippets from the Xlib document:

----
	To allocate a read-only color cell, use XAllocColor.
----
	To allocate read/write color cell and color plane combinations
	for a PseudoColor model, use XAllocColorCells.
----

Do you still think they do basically the same thing?

Unfortunately xlock doesn't just sleep; it does hinder the
execution of other processes.  But if the X server is
SIGSTOPped, won't this have the same effect?  The only drawback
I see is that you will need to login somewhere else and send it
a SIGCONT.

Of course, keystrokes are not ignored and you should do something
like
	$ sleep 5; kill -STOP <X server PID>

Then move the pointer to the root window.
Are there any security problems with this?

ANNOUNCING:
tkWWW 0.1 Alpha
by Joseph Wang (joe@athena.mit.edu)

A Tk interface to World Wide Web (ALPHA TEST)

WHAT IS IT?
-----------
World Wide Web (WWW) is a hypertext project which seeks to build a
world wide network of hypertext links.  There are several different
browsers for this system including a simple tty interface.

Tk is an interpreted toolkit which allows one to build X11 applications
quickly and easily.

tkWWW is a Tk interface to (WWW).

WHY ANOTHER WWW BROWSER?
------------------------
This Tk browser has two significant advantages.

1. Since it is written in a interpreted language, it is very easy to make
modifications and extensions to it.

2. More importantly, tkWWW uses the "Hyper" widget of the Tk toolkit.
This "Hyper" widget allows one to emmbed Tk applications in the
hypertext, allowing such things as graphics and animation. 

WHERE IS IT?
------------
export.lcs.mit.edu:/contrib/tkWWW-0.1.tar.Z

Copies have been uploaded to the WWW archive at info.cern.ch and the Tcl
archive at barkley.berkeley.edu.  They should be available shortly.


WHAT DO I NEED TO INSTALL IT?
-----------------------------
In order to install tkWWW you will need

   The code for the WWW line-mode browser. (anon ftp from info.cern.ch)
   Libraries for tk and tcl (I'm using tk2.1 and tcl6.3)

   A wish intepreter which contains the Hyper and XYGraph widgets

   A reasonable knowledge of UNIX and wish is needed as this is
   alpha test software.

To install this program, unpack the WWW line-mode browser source and 
cd to the directory $(top-dir)/WWW.  Unpack the tkWWW tar file. 

When you have got the thing running (or it fails to install), e-mail
me to let me know how it turned out.

WHAT'S THE CATCH?
-----------------
The catch is that this is very, very buggy software that was cobbled
together in three days of frantic hacking.  Use it at your own risk.

One of the non-obvious bugs is that if the browser exits abnormally it
will leave a dead process called "tkWWW" that will have to be killed
manually.

Comments, suggestions, and code modification are always appreciated.

ENJOY........

Hi,

I need help with a graphics application I am porting to X11R4,
Athena widgets (platforms: sun/sparc, DEC)

The application displays a 512x512 pixel image and 
updates areas of the image.  The graphics module receives
one row at a time to display. The data consists of
an array of colormap indices, the column and row of the first
pixel to display and the number of pixels to display. 

	raster_write_row(pixelBuf, count, x, y)
	char	*pixelBuf;
	int	count,x,y;

I am currently creating an Ximage of width count and height 1, 
putting the image in the window, and then destroying the 
image.  

This works, but there's a better way, right? I'm confused by
images, what kind of image should I be creating? How does the
image relate to a pixmap?  Is there a good reference on this?
Or a pd program that does something similar?

Thanks for any help (remember, be nice...)

Shirley

I consistently suffer the same problem using FrameMaker on a similar system.  It usually occurs when performing multiple clicks with the mouse.  The system can hang for a considerable length of time but does eventually come back.

I'm trying to build X11R5 pl 12 on a Sun 3/50 running SunOS 4.1.1 with
gcc 2.2.2.  The only change that I've made to the source is to add the
Xidle extension.  This does not modify any existing source, and X with
the extension compiled fine on a Sun4 (SunOS 4.1.2 without gcc), so I
do not think that the problem I am having has anything to do with
Xidle.  Also, the sun3 server compiled fine (though I have not tested
it yet).

When I run Make World, it gets all of the libraries compiled fine, but
then when it tries to make the clients, it fails with several of them.
The first is bitmap.  From the output of the make (I am installing
everything in /usr/X11R5/{bin,lib,include}):

gcc: Internal compiler error: program ld got fatal signal 11
*** Error code 1

I traced the problem down to dynamically linking with the new Xmu
libraries.  If I remove the -L../.././lib/Xmu flag and move the -lXmu
flag after the -L/usr/X11R5/lib (so it links dynamically against the
X11R5pl8 Xmu library that is currently installed) it works fine.  I
can also replace the -L../.././lib/Xmu and -lXmu flags with
../../lib/libXmu.a so that it links statically agains the new Xmu
library and this also works fine.

I have completely rebuilt the Xmu library once and that did not change
anything (there were no compilation warnings or errors but it still
gives me the segmentation fault error).  If anyone has seen this
problem or knows how to fix it, I would appreciate any help you can
give me.
