any idea of how to print a decent grey or BW gif? (Weather Maps)

I use xv, but xv and printing don't go hand in hand. 

If you want to try it out...ftp to vmd.cso.uiuc.edu under the dir wx
get any file that starts with SA (anyone will do..just to test it out)
and swap the Black and White (so you don't use all your toner!) and
let me know what you get..I get low res..crappy looking printouts.

On you VMS system type following command:

$ set display/create/node='nodename'/trans=decnet

and then start Xapplication on remote system.

Hope this helps :-)

My problem includes following:

My duty includes testing of X-Window-based applications.
To test the user-interface as well, I have found easiest
to 'record' the user-interface testing sessions. Later,
if the source code of an application is changed, one
must repeat all the tests. Wouldn't it be easy if you had
all the test macros recorded, so just play back them to test!

So, if there exists a X-Window session recorder with playback mode,
please let me know too...

Unfortunately I don't think it will! The VMS command:

SET DISPLAY/CREATE/NODE=nodename

sets the DECW$DISPLAY logical on the machine which is going to run
the client so that the client can find out which machine to display to.
The information from the previous poster doesn't make sense therefore.

It sounds to me like one of two things:

(1) Is the VAX you are trying to display to running VMS or EWS (ie
    only running a server and a scaled down version of the VAXeln O/S)?
    If so certain default files have to be set up correctly for you to
    display remotely - it's all badly ;-) explained in the manual!

(2) When you log into your Ultrix machine you don't by any chance log
    into another VAX along the way do you? I've found I can't display
    remotely if I do this - well written DEC software....

One thing that is always useful is to go into session manager security
and put these 3 entries in:

Node Username Transport
---- -------- ---------
*    *        *
*    *        DECNET
*    *        TCPIP

This (for yet another unknown reason) is the most likely way to connect
to a VAX (just putting * * * doesn't always work....)

Hope this helps,

Mark Parsons.

This usually occurs if the font is not available locally. i.e., you are running

All of the '\' in those two lines should be '\\' (the \ needs to be output).
Those are the only two lines (in the files transfig/mkfile.c and
fig2dev/iso2tex.c) that need to be changed.

This is a new bug and will be fixed in 2.1.6

I.e.  You get your program up anad running and then you want to test
it by running another program which goes through a sequence of tests.

Sort of like:

a.out < test

The only difference is that the I guess I would have to run another
program which would basically post events such as mouse and key to the
application. 

Any help is geratly appreciated

The bad news is that CM is not in the public domain.

The good news is that there is a public domain program called XVTDL
which has many of the features of CM including a tty interface, and
supposely in able to deal with multiple calendars.

cheack it out in cs.hope.edu (This is a very slow FTP site)
If somebody know of a fast FTP site with xvtdl please post.
Perhaps export.lcs.mit.edu has it.

  If I remember correctly, your UID is being sent to the VAXstation, NOT
your username.

  It's been awhile since I've done something like this.  Find out what
your UID is (3rd field in /etc/passwd) and use that in the username field
of the security dialog on the VAXstation.  This should work.

Does anyone know the current status of  xmailtool ?

We're running on Suns (sparcs) with X11R5, and have been using
a version for 5 months or so with no problems. However i got
the new version from archie recently (same version as from 
export.mit) and it would hang every time i ran it.

The new version seems to be ..

-rw-r--r--  1 ftp        114555 Oct  5 16:39 xmailtool.tar.Z

*.patchLevel:                   XMailTool v2.0.2


I'd read the posts that talked about problems with the new version,
but i thought i'd read a post which said that it was now fixed.

The directory structure availability for folders is exactly what
i wanted, so the new version was going to be a great improvement.

Does anyone know if a new version is on the way, or if there is a
ftp site for up-to-date versions of xmailtool?

Many thanks, J.  ucjtrjf@ucl.ac.uk     (4.1 cc)

I use ftptool, which provides an interactive interface for ftp

This is intended for OpenWindows, but can be compiled under
normal X if you have the right libraries (xview3 ?).

I would like to find a utility that will let me display a sequence of  
image files in rapid succession on a Sparc2 to generate a "movie" like  
effect.  Does anyone know of such a utility?  

Thanks in advance,

I'm interested in impressions, opinions and comments from
people who've used either of these applications.  

o Do they help hide bare X/OS from the user?
o Are they appropriate for Novices?
o Are they easy to install/operate?
o Do they provide 'significant' advantage over bare X/Motif?
  How so?

Thanks for your opinions.

Does anyone know of a X based application simular to Hypercard (Mac),
or (in general terms) hypertext?

I would appreciate hearing of any, particularly commercial based
products.

Thanks,
Ben
