Anyone thinking of porting > Sun-NeWs? My "well-informed sources" have informed me that Sun-NEWS *is* to be supported on the Amiga (will post more info as soon as I can). For those who aren't familiar with it, Sun-NEWS is Sun's new system for standardized, networkable remote windowing; uses Postscript; very nice overall. With Sun-NEWS on the Amiga, you could network an Amiga to a Sun workstation, then be able to remotely login to the Sun from your Amiga, and have SunWindows properly displayed on the Amiga.
