Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - the best there is
I learned X-Windows programming from this many years ago. Please bear with me as I set up the scenario here. As an independent consultant, I was in a situation where--in order to win a juicy federal contract--I had to represent that I was sufficiently expert in X-Windows to (a) build a toolkit of custom widgets; (b) build tools that allowed users to choose from a set of predefined "color palettes" such that (b-i) only certain classes (let's call them "Brand Q") of applications followed those palettes, ...

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - One of the best for Xt/Motif Programming

(And I will buy the English edition soon).
