I never "implemented" X on CMS,  but I have seen it done.
We're talking like more than 15 years ago,  Steve.  At the time,  there 
were less MT options than we have now.  Kind of overkill to XAUTOLOG a 
virtual machine just to run  'xclock'.  But lately,  we find that some USS 
programs will run on OpenVM without change.  Very nice!  (And with POSIX 
you automagically get one of the MT flavors,  which means you can then run 
an X app in background without losing your CMS forground command 
interpreter.)

X Window system on VM question.







Has anybody used or implemented anything on VM using the X Window system 
interface? 
I came across it while looking for something else in the TCPIP Prog. Ref. 
manual.  Just curious. 
Thanks, 
Steve
