I have put a new version of the front end App for use with Mouse-X in the
archive on foxtrot.ccmrc.ucsb.edu.  This new version of the App is compiled to
run only under OS 3.0  I have configured it specifically to work with the new 
X11 R5 color Xnext server binary which works on the NeXT color Turbo machines.
A copy of this binary is also included in the tarfile, which is in ~ftp/pub as 
MouseX-R5-color.tar.Z.  There is a text file called MouseX-R5-color.README 
which gives additional information on setting things up.  BE SURE TO READ THIS
BEFORE TRYING TO USE THE NEW FRONT END.  A word to the wise is sufficient.

This version of the front end App allows you to pop back and forth between X
and NextStep in the same manner as the R4 versions did.  It also has the added
feature of a menu for restarting Xnext and for hiding the App itself.

Though there is currently no version of the R5 Xnext which will run on the
monochrome Turbo, I am planning to get one built and tested in the next month.
I will post when I have results.
