The recently held European X User Group conference and exhibition was resounding success. This is the fourth year the event has been held, and X Windows continues to gain new ground and attract more players. The exhibition was well-attended, with exhibitors offering a wide range of X terminals, software development tools, training programmes and connectivity products. Exhibitors included NCD, Tektronics, V1, VisionWare and IST. Speakers addressed issues such as X for conferencing and group working; current technological trends; X over slow lines; display PostScript and graphics within X Windows. Continuing the EXUG policy of inviting big names from the world of X, this year three US-based experts headed the programme - Doug Young, Oliver Jones and Bob Scheifler. The programme included presentations by over 20 speakers, from eight countries. Pre-conference tutorials proved a major attraction. Subjects on offer this year included 'Using C++ with Motif', Debugging X Programs', and a course designed for newcomers to X - 'From Awareness to Understanding'. The strength of interest shown in this year's conference has given a boost to EXUG plans for 1993, including a rolling programme of tutorials, seminars and workshops, to be held in centres in the UK and other EC countries. This year's proceedings are available for 30 pounds (inc. P&P) from EXUG, PO Box 458, Cambridge, CB3 8SD, Great Britain. Payment by cheque or credit card.
