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. -- dwj@think.com.arpa
