Fi on you, you should be using DECWindows, not CDE...

On the bright side, though, it does at least mean that various people might start rolling out improvements for it on the various platforms it lives on, especially AIX (which is the only current platform it's left on I think??)

Hello!
As it happens I actually got it working on Solaris. (X86) My SPARC box
that I have here runs without a head, but the VNC screen does good
graphics.....

Anyway I passed along your good news Sampsa to my LUG, everyone seemed
rather pleased.

Oh and Mark? Right now there are four odd looking characters watching
you. They are also studying Sampsa.
