Summary: XView libraries for X11

Description: 

XView provides a set of pre-built, user-interface objects such as
canvases, scrollbars, menus, and control panels. The appearance and
functionality of these objects follow the OPEN LOOK Graphical User
Interface (GUI) specification.

This is the Sun implementation of the OpenLook interface standard,
using the xview libraries. While somewhat outdated and superseded by
Motif, or gtk, it is still very useful, especially in providing
compatibility with older installations.

It is possible that the openwin desktop takes up much less disk space
to install and memory to run than modern desktops, which would make it
a good candidate for old hardware.
