Speaking of Unix* windows for the ST, hasn't anybody out there done a port
of the Macintosh uw program to the ST. The sources for both the Mac and the
Unix end are public domain (I expect you could get them out of net.sources.mac,
I have them). For those who aren't familiar with uw, it handles a number of
windows, each of which is a sub-shell of a login to a Unix system. It's really
great! Anybody done the port, or working on it??
*Unix -- it's somebody's trademark and all that nonsense.
