-
- One thing that would be really useful - being able to run programs like the zip
- editor and edge (though I imagine the easier solution would be to rewrite them
- for X).
-
- Also, though generating complex images in real time including animation may not
- be practical, it would be useful to be able to read showcase documentation
- on an X screen (even if the occasional picture may take a long time to render).
-
- I'm not a great X fan but these are a few things I have needed to do.
