Greetings,

I have been away from the X Windows world for about 6 months now and I was
wondering if any products have been introduced recently (or are about to
be released) which allow a source file for SunView to be compiled and run
under X Windows.  A while ago, Sun announced View2 (now called XView)
which claimed to do this.  Were they successful and is it available yet?
If this information has already been gone over in these groups, I am sorry
to post such a request, but could anyone send me a summary of what was
discussed.  

What I would like to be able to do is take an application written for
SunView and be able to compile and link it with a library so that it
behaves as a standard X Window client.  Any information on commercial or
publically available SunView X Windows toolkits would be very much
appreciated.  

Thank you,

Mike Thompson
