Hi all,

please forgive this OT blurb;

I am a UNIX shell and SLIP account owner... when I browse the web using my
shell account and my ISP's UNIX machines, I use lynx

I have heard that X or X Window is like a GUI for UNIX... and I remember
circa '90 - '96 at the now-defunct ivy high-tech/med book shop - TONS of
greek computer texts on: X.24, X.23, X.500, X Tools, X Motif - What Were
These??? What Were These books about??

What Is X??

can a random access shell/CLI+{SLIP} acct. user, "Install X?"??, remotely
on his or her's ISP's UNIX machines?? 

How would/is this/be done??

for the average shell(and SLIP) Unix user, like me, of what use? would
this be/is this???

would I want to, or even could I, run/install/configure Netscape or IE or
even Arachne, remotely from my shell terminal to my ISP's UNIX rather than
on my own (DOS)-WindowsX machine?? would it be faster? ? ?

just curious!

please e-me off-list if you feel this is too OT ...

Andy
