I have a few questions about writing SunView programs.

1.  If I have a window with several choice items (each choice
    item consisting of a button with a choice string next to it),
    how do I gray-out one of the choice items (at least the
    choice string part)?  The problem is that in certain
    situations, I don't want all of the choices to be available.
    And if possible, I'd rather not create a different window
    for each permutation of available and unavailable choices.

2.  How do I get a SunView program to come up iconic (e.g., if
    invoked with -Wi)?

3.  Is there a style guide for SunView applications?  Please
    pass me a pointer.

If you have any answers for me, please EMAIL ME DIRECTLY.
Thanks,
