On reply 5 of note 812 (812.5) it says that the ST can run X-windows.
If there is such a product, and someone is using it, could they please
let me know were I can get my hands on it.
Also, does anyone know if the tektonix mode of Uniterm works with
Decwindows.
Thanks in advance, Memnon Emmanuel Thessaloniki,Greece.

I haven't used the product, but I will dig up the information and
put it in here.

Re: tektronics mode of Uniterm. I don't uinderstand the question you are asking. Uniterm's tektronics mode does a good job of emulating a tektronics terminal. I have used it with a couple of Unix programs which product graphics in tek format. Could you please explain the decwindows reference? | |||||

What I meant was, is it possible to run Decwindows on the Atari
with Uniterm in Tektronics mode?

No. There is a BIG difference between a "graphics terminal" like Tektronix, and the workstation capability of DECwindows. Real big. The question is sort of like asking "Can a bicycle be made to fly across the Atlantic ocean at supersonic speeds carying a payload of sixteen tons?" | |||||

I finished going through all my reference material and I can't
find the information for X-windows. All I remember was that it
was associated with an Ethernet adaptor that cost $800.
The closest I could come to the information is the following from
the April 1989 issue of Start -

Atari Germany has taken over distribution of X/ST/windows, the X server, for the ST. They just stated it would be available in June 1990 in system special shops. Dipl.-Inform.
