In article <1718@ssc-vax.UUCP> benoni@ssc-vax.UUCP (Charles L Ditzel) writes: |Their is no technical reason that I know of, why the Apple |desktop interface couldn't sit on top of NeWS. Absolutely right. NeWS can emulate any window system I know of. There is already a GEM emulator. In fact, you can theoretically pop up a menu and choose which window system you would like to emulate. This would even work with applications in shrink-wrap packages, due to the dynamic and flexible nature of NeWS. Even now there are people whom are emulating SunView, X, and GEM windows simultaneously. -- Bruce G. Barnett <barnett@ge-crd.ARPA> <barnett@steinmetz.UUCP> uunet!steinmetz!barnett
