Review
"I find this book extraordinary. It's one of the first books on
X which addresses questions of information systems policy with
respect to the X Window System...It will advance the case of X
and open systems by making the interesting issues more
accessible..."
Oliver Jones

more than just click buttons and menus but doesn't want to dive
