Is it for OpenWindows 2.0? I heard NeWS has changed between 2.0 and 3.0.

FYI: I got this error message when I tried it:

process(0x2f2088, 'alanya NeWS client', runnable)
Error: /undefined
Command: 'send'
Ostack: save[0] color(0.95,0.28,0.68) color(0.61,0.56,0.80) /setcolors canvas(0x2660f8, 1152x900, parent, retained)

I'm not a good PostScript hacker, so I refuse to look for the problem myself. :-)

This looks like the old problem with NeWS classes not being 
loaded on startup.  Note that it thinks the framebuffer is 
a raw NeWS canvas rather than an instance of a TNT class.  
If you add

   ClassFramebuffer pop

after the packages are loaded, it will probably work ok.

---- Mark Smith ---- Canon Research Europe ---- smith@canon.co.uk ----

A new version of hexroot (draw 3d hexagons on NeWS/OpenWindows root window)...

When Lupe Christoph <lupe@ukw.uucp> reported an error running hexroot,
Mark Smith <smith@canon.co.uk> helpfully suggested adding ClassFramebuffer pop
after the packages are loaded.

In fact there are a couple of other changes, so since it's not all that big,
here's an updated version.  Tested on OpenWindows 3 *and* OpenWindows 2.
The default colours are slightly better in OW3, though.

Also, this version has better-shaped hexagons.
