  18. I have a RS/6000 POWERstation 220 running AIX 3.2.  I am interested             
  19. in learning about AIXwindows and how to write a 'C' application that            
  20. uses the X-windows environment.  As of right now I don't have access            
  21. to any of the IBM manuals that cover this topic in depth.  I do feel            
  22. that the IBM manuals are not the best ones to learn from but they do            
  23. make good references.                                                           
  24.                                                                                 
  25. Can anyone suggest any good books on X-windows programming in 'C'?              
  26. I don't know if just any X-windows programming book will do or if I             
  27. need one that specifically covers AIXwindows!                                   
  28.                                                                                 
  29. I would also be interested in some small programming samples of                 
  30. X-windows applications.  Are there any FTP sites that would have                
  31. any coding samples or would any of you have any samples you would               
  32. like to share.  I am talking small and simple examples because I                
  33. know very little about 'C' and almost nothing about X-windows!                  
  34.                                                                                 
  35. Thanks in advance!
