Thanks also to Linda Walsh and Lenny Muellner +of O'Reilly for their help. + +My wife, Betty Cerar, believed in the project and helped out in +so many ways that I cannot list them. + +Liam Quin, my colleague at SoftQuad for many years, provided invaluable +help.

+Darwin Open Systems OPEN LOOK CD-ROM Logo Welcome to the Online Tour of The OPEN LOOK and XView Source and +Documentation CD-ROM!

+

We've organized this online tour using HTML to allow you to browse +it with Mosaic, Netscape, TkWWW, or your favorite Web viewer. If you are +on the Internet, this will also allow you to follow links to the +outside, of which there are some few scattered throughout the tour. +

Before you start, you may need to tell your Web Viewer about +certain file types. For Mosaic, the files in the WebHelpers directory +can be added to your .mime.types and .mailcap file, or can be used to +create those files. For other browswers, you may need to enter this +information manually in a "Helper Applications" dialog. +

This is The OPEN LOOK and XView Source and Documentation CD-ROM +(formerly called The OPEN LOOK GUI, XView and NeWS Archive). We have +collected +three full OPEN LOOK textbooks, the +example programs from several +OPEN LOOK and X11 programming texts, the latest versions of +libraries, and many +useful programs. And we've compiled +many of them for both Linux and +SunOS, so that you can run them out of +the box on two of the highest-volume UNIX platforms in use today. We've +also provided +pre-built search indexes for Sun's +SearchIt and Adobe's Acrobat Catalog +searching tools to help you find specific information that you need. +

Overview

Here is an approximage pictorial overview of the +CD's contents: + +

In a little more detail: +

Window Systems Source Code

Since this archive is intended +to be of interest to, among others, window system afficionados, we've +also included the source code for not one but two complete window +systems: +

Licensing.

Most of this CD-ROM is freeware. However, +the text books are covered by a separate license. +

Tell us...

We hope you're satisfied with your OPEN +LOOK, XView and News Archive CD. If you have suggestions for +improvements, please e-mail us at +olcd@darwinsys.com. Please tell +us about additional XView software that we should include. If you'd like +to order additional copies for your friends, you can call us at +1 +800-463-2108 or check out our World +Wide Web pages (if that fails, check for our +proposed World Wide Web pages. +

Upgrades

+

This is our first version of the OPEN LOOK and XView Source and +Documentation CD-ROM, and we will undoubtedly find many ways to make +it better over the next few months. If you're interested in an upgrade +at very reasonable rates, contact us at one of the above addresses or +try this +or this. +

We hope to include +

In short, more of everything, and better. But we can only do +this if we sell enough copies of the first version. So if you like it, +please tell your friends! +

If you'd be interested in an "inheritance filesystem" overlay +update, please let us know that too. +
