I am looking for information on any product which provides a generic
GUI interface to a (Unix/DOS/...) application and makes the appropriate
calls to whatever real GUI is in use.  (At least X and MS Windows.)

I have vague recollections of a product, which I think was called XVT,
which does this.  If this is correct, could someone please mail me the
address of the supplier?

Are there any alternatives?  Opinions welcome.

Profuse apologies if this is a FAQ, I usually lurk in other BBs.

Please respond via e-mail, I will summarise if interest level warrants.
