If you happen to run an HP 9000 Series  300, 400, or 700 system or an HP
700/RX  terminal  you may want to have a look at an  application  called
SharedX.  It  allows  to  share  any X  application  to one or  multiple
workstations   in  the  net.  No  code  changes  are  necessary  on  the
application  side.  The  sender can only be one of the  above.  Receiver
can be any workstation/X terminal that runs X11R4 or later X servers.

In addition to sharing, SharedX allows input (mouse & keyboard) from the
workstations shared to.  The sender can determine who of he receivers is
allowed to do input to the shared window(s).  Also, a telepointer can be
added to a shared  window  to point  out  e.g.  a  specific  part of the
interface being shared.
