Owner`s manual
DECwindows and X Window System applications that do not take into ac-
count the PC's hardware characteristics (such as screen resolution,
screen aspect ratios, keyboard layouts, and number of mouse buttons)
may not function optimally with a PC as a display server.
In addition to the supported OpenVMS and ULTRIX DECwindows window man-
agers, Digital provides an OpenVMS window manager designed specifi-
cally for PC screens that allows users to move windows off the screen.
Note: The OpenVMS window manager will be discontinued concurrent with
the next release of this product.
A configuration utility, DWCONFIG, is provided for users to config-
ure the X Server for their hardware and configure the user preferences
parameters.
A KEYSYM compiler, DWKEYSYM, is provided for users to build custom key-
board layouts to support applications.
A font compiler, DWFONT, is provided to compile fonts in the Adobe(R)
Bitmap Distribution Format, Version 2.1 into a format for the X Server.
A DECnet Remote Application Startup Program is provided for OpenVMS
systems (as a DCL command procedural file) and for ULTRIX VAX and RISC
systems (as an executable program). These programs start X Window Sys-
tem applications on the host system on behalf of the X Server.
Print Screen support is not available while using PC DECwindows Mo-
tif.
Use of PC DECwindows Motif exclusively does not require that a PATH-
WORKS server reside in the network.
