You can get great book(s) on X from O'Reilly. It's a series that covers everything about X (I didn't check recedntly but I'd estimate there are about 10 books in the series - some of them in two versions: standard X or X+Motif). The "For Dummies" volume is volume 3: X Windows System User's Guide (look at http://www.ora.com/catalog/v3/). These are considered by many (including my humble self) to be *the* definitive guides on X (though I mainly use the volumes on programming: 1,2,4,5 and 6A-C). You may also want to consider Volume 8 - the administrator's guide. > > Doug White | University of Oregon > Internet: dwhite@resnet.uoregon.edu | Residence Networking Assistant > http://gladstone.uoregon.edu/~dwhite | Computer Science Major Nadav
