  14. I have a RS/6000 POWERstation 220 running AIX 3.2.  I am interested             
  15. in learning about AIXwindows and how to write a 'C' application that            
  16. uses the X-windows environment.  As of right now I don't have access            
  17. to any of the IBM manuals that cover this topic in depth.  I do feel            
  18. that the IBM manuals are not the best ones to learn from but they do            
  19. make good references.                                                           
  20.                                                                                 
  21. Can anyone suggest any good books on X-windows programming in 'C'?              
  22. I don't know if just any X-windows programming book will do or if I             
  23. need one that specifically covers AIXwindows!                                   
  24.                                                                                 
  25. I would also be interested in some small programming samples of                 
  26. X-windows applications.  Are there any FTP sites that would have                
  27. any coding samples or would any of you have any samples you would               
  28. like to share.  I am talking small and simple examples because I                
  29. know very little about 'C' and almost nothing about X-windows!                  
  30.                                                                                 
  31. Thanks in advance!
