I have a RS/6000 POWERstation 220 running AIX 3.2.  I am interested             
in learning about AIXwindows and how to write a 'C' application that            
uses the X-windows environment.  As of right now I don't have access            
to any of the IBM manuals that cover this topic in depth.  I do feel            
that the IBM manuals are not the best ones to learn from but they do            
make good references.                                                           
                                                                                
Can anyone suggest any good books on X-windows programming in 'C'?              
I don't know if just any X-windows programming book will do or if I             
need one that specifically covers AIXwindows!                                   
                                                                                
I would also be interested in some small programming samples of                 
X-windows applications.  Are there any FTP sites that would have                
any coding samples or would any of you have any samples you would               
like to share.  I am talking small and simple examples because I                
know very little about 'C' and almost nothing about X-windows!                  
                                                                                
Thanks in advance!
