FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE : Cub'x Systemes announces the availability of Cub'X-
Window version 4.0, the FASTEST X11R5 X Window System for NEXTSTEP computers.

With Cub'X-Window, you can run X applications locally on your NEXTSTEP
computer, or display X applications running on other X Window workstations of
your network.

You can also develop or port X applications on your NEXTSTEP computer with
Cub'X-Window Development Tools module. Cub'X-Window supports Tab Window
Manager (twm), O.S.F. Motif 1.2 is available.

"I believe a major factor to NEXTSTEP success is the user ability to
efficiently access his legacy applications. NEXTSTEP advantages are so
manifest, using NEXTSTEP is adopting it. Nevertheless, there is a transitory
time during which applications based on the previous system are still needed.
This period must be untroublesome for a successful move to NEXTSTEP. " said
Gerard Laurent, Cub'x Systemes General Manager.

"Experience shows that many X Window users turning to NEXTSTEP are extremely
disappointed by the low speed level they often get with X client/server
solutions on NEXTSTEP computers. This is why we developed Cub'X-Window with a
strong focus on speed. "

"Cub'X-Window not only provides all features for the best communication
between X and NEXTSTEP, but also permits users to get the fastest display of X
apps on NEXTSTEP machines. Each Cub'X-Window upgrade pushes forward the limit
of X speed performance, and it is our ambition to keep on providing a high-
quality Cub'X-Window solution on Intel based NEXTSTEP computers."

Cub'X-Window for NEXTSTEP for Intel processors (NSFip) will be available in
July 1993. This Intel version provides on white hardware the very same range
of high quality features and X display options provided in Cub'X-Window for
NeXT hardware. Cub'x Systemes' developer team is proud to announce it has
succeeded in increasing X display speed on Intel based NEXTSTEP computers to
an unprecedented level.

Cub'X-Window unique range of features and X display options: Cub'X-Window
provides X function key emulation, cut/paste features, save X screen as Tiff,
X application launch panel, manual pages available under Librarian.app, host
access limitation, NEXTSTEP Services... and many more!

Cub'X Window offers a unique range of 4 display options to tune the degree of
integration between X and NEXTSTEP for best match with your X apps display and
speed requirements:

- Run X applications in the NEXTSTEP environment, simultaneously with NeXT
applications. - Run X in full screen display, in a virtual screen parallel to
the NEXTSTEP one. - Run 2 X servers simultaneously, one inside NEXTSTEP, the
other displayed in full screen. - Run X applications without NEXTSTEP
(available on NeXT hardware only).
