We have a GKS implementation for the X Window System, and a GKS implementation for several other machines/devices which do not run X. These include our Imagen Laser printers, our HP pen plotter, C-MU's Andrew system, and HP9836s and HP9000/300 running HP-UX. This way, our stuff works on machines which run X, but also work for other devices and machines. George J Wu
