Great phone number.  Think British, look at their name and the phone number.
Strange sense of humor :-)

In any event, the demo is available on uunet in:

There is also a README file in the same directory.

As I type this, I am downloading the files via anonuucp.

Organization: AT&T
Date: Wed, 11 Nov 1992 17:35:00 GMT
Keywords: AT&T 730X Terminal X SunOS 4.1.2 Fonts


i am having trouble launching X processes on a AT&T 730X terminal
connected to SunOS 4.1.2

here are the 730X versions
  - the terminal: 730+ Release 1.1 10/18/90
  - the network:  AT&T 730+ StarLAN 10 TCP/IP NAU Version 1.0 (08/02/90)
  - the 730X cartdrige: X Server Generic 1.2 08/07/91

and here are the symptoms:
  - can get the X server successfully running on the 730X
  - can get X processes down from the Sun to the 730X
    e.g. can launch xlogo and i see it on the display
  - launching processes that require fonts, e.g. xterm or olwm
    fail with complaints about fonts on the sun side

i believe i have the Xadmin paths set correctly on the 730X and the
proper shell environments on the Sun side, but if you have done
this, then maybe you could send along your environments.

i also think that i might have the incorrect fonts.  i am not sure
what i need...

i have tried this with both the V1.0 and V1.2 X cartdriges for the
730.  what is the correct one?

unfortunately the AT&T documentation does not seem to help me.

I've tried to setup xlock to run when I do a
function key or from the main window manager menu
on my x11r5 system, without success.  In both cases,
xlock runs, but the screen just blanks without any
screen saver and a X cursor is present.  Hitting any key
returns you to the windows.  Running it manually
from an xterm window works fine.  What gives?
I'm running X386 1.2e on a 486 and
the ctwm window manager.  Thanks for
any ideas

Also: is there a way to get function keys to work for the vt102

anyway to use programs that
download and require those function keys.

This is due to a bug in the Intrinsics.  Theoretically, the same thing should
happen to the top ruler because they are identical, but it works fine.

Apply the following patch:

Subject: Re: Why KeyPress/Release not work in DrawingAreaWidget?
Date: 13 Nov 92 17:51:53 GMT
Organization: Naval Surface Warfare Center - White Oak

Thank you to all of you who give me the right answers.

I set all the widget for (XmNtraversalOn, False,) and the
ScrolledWindowWidget:

Widget horizontal_scrollbar, vertical_scrollbar;

XtVaGetValues(sw, XmNhorizontalScrollBar, &horizontal_scrollbar,
			XmNverticalScrollBar, &vertical_scrollbar, NULL);

	XtVaSetValues(horizontal_scrollbar, XmNtraversalOn, False, NULL);
	XtVaSetValues(vertical_scrollbar, XmNtraversalOn, False, NULL);

Now I can get KeyPress and KeyRelease in my Motif DrawingAreaWidget.
Then I should input text string to DrawingAreaWidget from my keyboard,
right? Well, the answer is no, I don't get keysym return! Here are my codes:


void
draw_text(widget, data, cbs)
Widget widget;
XtPointer data;
XmDrawingAreaCallbackStruct *cbs;
{
	XEvent *event = cbs->event;
   	Display *dpy = event->xany.display;
	char *string, *buffer;
    	KeySym keysym;
    	int count;
   	XComposeStatus compose;

	if (cbs->reason == XmCR_INPUT) {
		switch (event->xany.type) {
			.....
			.....
			case KeyPress:
				printf("got a keypress event\n");
				count = XLookupString(&event,
						buffer, 10, &keysym,
						&compose);
				printf("The keysym is %s\n",
					XKeysymToString(keysym));
				break;
			case  KeyRelease:
				printf("got a keyrelease event\n");
				break;
			default:
				....
				break;
		} /* end switch */
	} /* end if */
} /* end function */

Well, no matter what key I press, it always give me output:

got a keypress event
The keysym is (null)
got a keyrelease event

1) Why I don't get keysym return from XLookupString()?
2) When I press Enter/Return key, only print out:

got a keyrelease event.
Why?

3) I put following codes in
case ButtonPress: or case ButtonRelease:

XSetInputFocus(dpy, cbs->window, RevertToNone,
					CurrentTime);
XGrabKey(dpy, AnyKey, AnyModifier,
				XtWindow(widget), False,
				GrabModeAsync, GrabModeAsync);
still don't help.
Let me tell you what I try to do. My final goal is input text strings
in the Motif DrawingAreaWidget from the keyboard.

4) Why there is no comp.windows.x.xlib newsgroup?

I think this depends on what happens between invocations of the client.  
Depending on what other clients are running and what requests are being 
made of the server, it seems possible that the large contiguous blocks 
or memory previously used for displaying large pixmaps might be partially 
or wholly reallocated to other clients, and that the resulting memory
fragmentation would require malloc(some-large-size) to go back to the
operating system for more memory if no suitably large block remained
on the free list.

_______________________________________________________________________

Thanks to all who replied.  Here is the answer to the DISPLAY problem.

To get output from "there" to appear "here" you can do the following

here>  Set host there
there> Set display /node=here /create -
	   /transport=[DECNET | TCPIP | LOCAL]
there> Run sys$system:Vue$master
_______________________________________________________________________

And for the xmodmap problem:

IN the latest Version of Motif on VMS (5.5) you have the xmodmap
.xsetroot xset ..  utilities.

runs under both SunOS 4.x and Solaris 2.0, and should run under most

along with Cygnus' gcc for Solaris 2.0.

Hello, I am faced with the following problem :

  We have a simulation program. Now we want to draw the objects in a window.
  Sofar no problem, use a canvas. But now we want to be able to pick an 
  object with the mouse and get information on a different screen.
  The problem is that I don't want to use low level routines to get
  the (x,y) position of the object and then check in a list if there is an
  object close enough to this position.
  The best thing would be something you can tell to move to some position and
  which generates an event when clicked on. This event should contain all the
  information about the simulation object (pointer).

At this moment I don't have the experience to create something like this. Some
help would be nice.

Please send E-Mail, I read it more often.

Your C compiler means that it is out of space in /tmp.  I've had the
same problem myself.  You might consider adding a flag to the CFLAGS
that changes the directory the C compiler uses for temporary files.
I believe that a -temp=. will fix it.

	export.lcs.mit.edu:/contrib/tgif-2.12-patch13.Z

Here's a short list of added features/bug fixes.

1)  Fix bugs related to the tgif -print feature.  The problem was that
    popen() calls sh(1) and that quotes are stripped by sh(1).
    Thanks to Yoichiro Ueno <ueno@cs.titech.ac.jp> for the code fixes.
2)  The TextSize and TextStyle menus were reversed.
3)  Generate integer bounding box in PostScript output files.  This is to
    conform to the PostScript standard.
4)  Augment the UsePsAdobeString X default such that specific %!PS-Adobe
    string can be specified.  In addition to ``true'' and ``false'',
    UsePsAdobeString can also be specified with <Adobe_Version>/<EPSF_Version>.
    The command line option "-adobe=<Adobe_Version>/<EPSF_Version>" is also
    added.
5)  Add a new X default, ForceClearAfterEPS.  When it is set to ``true'',
    the PostScript stack is cleared after printing an EPS object.  This action
    was always taken in patchlevel 12 of version 2.12.  However, recently
    I found that the PostScript Language Reference Manual strongly discourages
    doing so.  Therefore, use this only if you REALLY want to generate the
    illegal "clear" command to get around some buggy EPS documents (such as
    the one generated by xgrabsc).
6)  Add the -DHP_LINE_BUG compile option to get around some buggy HP servers.
7)  Remove unrecognized commands in the man pages.

(running 'sum' on tgif-2.12-patch13.Z on a SUN4 should get: 32710  19)

Hi,

   I need to load up 2 different gif images onto 2 label widgets which are
in the same window.

If anyone has any advice then please contact me directly at :

	tummala@aludra.usc.edu.

I've just started programming in Motif, so sample code would be useful, rather
than jargon about colormaps, Xlib functions etc.

Any help would be much appreciated.

Thanks,

 Hi,
 
 	I have what I believe to be a very basic question about the X-Windows 
 distribution source code. Does int always mean a 32-bit integer?
 
 	I have encountered so many places where this is true, that I am thinking 
 about attempting to change all references to an int to a long (I work on a 
 machine that assumes int == 16-bits).
 
 	If this assumption (int==32-bits) is not True, are there any rules for 
 knowing in advance when an int is required?

 Thanks
 
 Jim Carroll
