244.0. "TPU support" by ULTRA::WRAY (John Wray) Fri Feb 17 1989 17:23

    What (if any) are the problems with calling TPU from a DECwindows
    application?  Is anyone writing a TPU-widget - Now that'd be
    added-value over Xlib!

    At present, we are not engaged in writing a TPU widget.
    
    We do, however, agree that this would be a valuable thing to do.  Our
    only questions are about relative priorities with this as opposed to
    work_file support, fixing journalling, etc. etc.  But it *is* on our
    list.
    
    As far as calling TPU from a DECWindows application goes:  we have enhanced
    the calling interface to allow for some aspects of the new environment
    (such as getting TPU to run in a pre-defined widget), but we have not
    documented this at this point.
