I installed on my machine whatever was on the CD ROM related to X386
It works roughly now. But I never was doing anything with X Windiows. (
(I have MSDOS/Windows programming background)
So I have
few very naive questions.
1) What good applications are available for X (prefer free :)) - I mean
something like File Manager, Editor (sorry, prefer Menu driven), C++ IDE,
Communication Packages, Tetris, etc..
2) Do I have everything nesessary to write my own app for X?
Sorry, I really a little bit confused about all different layers of X.
3) Could anybody recommend me a good book covering X architecture and
development?
Thanks in advance!
Boris
