So, if you want the code, you will have to talk to them (phone 1-800-MANUALS in the USA). I do know that the sources ARE copyrighted and most likely MIS will NOT allow free redistribution (ask them, though). As an aside, we did try to reuse as much code as possible, to limit the amount of typing needed (but there is a lot of code). As a reference, the book is: _X Window Applications Programming_ by Eric F. Johnson and Kevin Reichard MIS: Press, 1989 ISBN: 1-55828-016-2 Have fun, -Eric -- Eric F.
