The updated version fixed several problems with the earlier versions,
and in addition, XForms now supports B&W and 2bit/3bits displays.


What is XForms
-----------
XForms is a graphical user interface toolkit based on Xlib for 
X Window Systems. XForms is a portable and efficient C library 
that can be used in both C and C++ programs. The library works in 
all visuals and all depths depths (1-24) and comes with a rich set of 
objects such as buttons, browsers, sliders, and menus integrated into 
an elegant event/object callback execution model that allows fast and easy 
construction of X-applications.  The library also defines an architecture
on which new classes of objects can be easily developed and added
to the library.

The Forms Library is very intuitive and simple to use. It is by
far the easiest to learn and the easiest to use system for
X GUI development. You can start writing XForms based programs within 
an hour once you go though the first five pages of the documentation and 
have run and read a couple of the demos. Actually once you know
the system, you don't have the write any code, the bundled GUI designer
will do it for you. 

XForms comes bundled with
- Precompiled library and header files for the following platforms:
   IBM/RS6000
   SGI 
   PC/Linux 
   SUN (SunOS and Solaris)
   HP/HP-UX
   DecAlpha/OSF
   DecStation/Ultrix
   PC/FreeBSD
   Convex
   Cray-C90
   Cray-YMP
- Source code for 50+ demonstration programs;
- Precompiled fdesign, an interactive GUI builder that can
  be used to design dialogues in a WYSIWYG way and to output the
  corresponding C code for you.
- ~200 pages of documentation (tutorial and reference);
