I am new to xwindows and am seeking some basic information.
In particular, I would like to find out about existing Xwindow
toolkits that will help me build an application.  This application
will run on a SUN using X11.  I am using Lucid Common Lisp, but
I assume that I can also use toolkits written in C.  Some of the
functions I want to perform are to:
  - Put up a menu of options for the user to mouse on.
  - Allow the user to position a window with the mouse.
  - Display a binary image inside a window.
  - Display an image of straight lines inside a window.
I would appreciate information about any toolkits that could make 
this task easier, or pointers to more appropriate places to ask
this question.  Thanks in advance for your help.
