544.0. "4 WS and 1 client ?" by 48213::DIGNE (Jean-Marc DIGNE SWAS Paris Diderot) Wed Apr 05 1989 14:37

	I'd to use 4  WSs to display a lot of windows from a
	unique application running on a VAXserver:


	+-----+   +-----+   +-----+   +-----+   
	! WS1 !   ! WS2 !   ! WS3 !   ! WS4 +---KEYBOARD and MOUSE
	+--+--+   +--+--+   +--+--+   +--+--+            +--------------+
	   !         !         !         !               !    VAX       !
	   +---------+---------+---------+---------------+    Server    !
	                                                 ! Application  !
	                                                 +--------------+


	1/ Is it possible to connect 1 client application to many X servers?
	   How ?

	2/ Is't possible to suppress the keyboard of the WS1,WS2,WS3 without
	   getting an error during the hardware test of the WS (at boot time)?


	3/ Is it possible to display the same window on many WS ?

	4/ More difficult ! Is it possible to drive a window from a mouse and
	   a keyboard witch aren't on the same WS ?

	Thanks for your answers....

	The Visex program released from the MCC Software Technology Program has some of these features, though I expect you'd need to make some modifications to fit it into a DECwindows envrionment. Contact our MCC STP liason, Don Braffitt, at Austin::Braffitt for more information about Visex. The CLT::SOFTWARE_TECHNOLOGY conference also should have more information.
