   We would like to make slides of our xwindows based program ... does
   anyone know if it can be done?

Depending on what you mean by slides, I use either the capture
function under FRAME to take a snapshot of my (1 bit) X display or I
use the xwd utility and a postscript convertor to spit out postscript
and send that to a Postcript laser printer to make overhead slides.
(Feed copier transparency material through instead of paper - works well)

If you want 35mm slide quality, and color you get into the image
processing ballgame and you need a means of making hardcopy.  The pbm
utilities provide a lot of format conversions and Khoros (unm.pprg.edu)
provides several conversion utilities as well as lots of image processing
capability.
