"What's six lines long?"
	The source to the WINTERP version of 'Hello World'.

WINTERP is an XLISP interface to the Motif widget set. Loading the
following 6 line expression into WINTERP's lisp server contradicts the
above statements claiming that a 'Hello World' program in X windows is
large.

   (let* ((top_w (send TOP_LEVEL_SHELL_WIDGET_CLASS :new))
          (but_w (send XM_PUSH_BUTTON_WIDGET_CLASS :new :managed top_w
                       :XMN_LABEL_STRING "hello world")))
     (send but_w :add_callback :XMN_ARM_CALLBACK '()
           '((format t "hello world\n")))
     (send top_w :realize))
