Volume 4 is a complete guide to programming with the X Toolkit Intrinsics, the library of C language routines that facilitates the design of user interfaces with reusable components called widgets. It provides concepts and examples that show how to use the various X Toolkit routines. The first few chapters are devoted to using widgets; the remainder of the book covers the more complex task of writing new widgets.

Volume 4 is available in two editions. The Motif Edition uses the Motif 1.2 widget set in examples and covers X11 Release 5.

Volume 4 includes:

  • Introduction to the X Window System.
  • Building applications with widgets.
  • Constructing a bitmap editor with widgets.
  • An overview of each widget in the widget set.
  • Basic widget methods.
  • Events, translations, and accelerators.
  • Event handlers, timeouts, and work procedures.
  • Resource management and type conversion.
  • Selections and window manager interaction.
  • Geometry management.
  • Menus, gadgets, and cascaded pop-ups.
  • Miscellaneous techniques.
  • Comparison of Athena, OSF/Motif, and AT&T OPEN LOOK widgets.
  • Master index to volumes 4 and 5.
This book is designed to be used with Volume 5, X Toolkit Intrinsics Reference Manual, which provides reference pages for each of the Xt functions, the widget classes defined by Xt, and the Athena widget set.
