Mary,
Your question seems a bit confusing, but let me take a stab at it, since no
one else seems to understand, either.  If you want your GUI application to
be executed on the Unix box, then you will need either an X-terminal or some
X-terminal emulation software.
If I remember correctly, though, Exceed is Windows software.  If you do have
a Windows client machine, you can execute your GUI code on the Windows
machine without the need for X-term software.  You just need a copy of the
JRE on the machine.

I hope that answered your question...
Jason
