Folks,
I presume I'm the last to hear about this, but I learned
about an X server that runs on Windows the other day,
named Xming:
http://sourceforge.net/projects/xming
It is very nice, and it's free. :-)
After installing it on my Windows machine, I can log
into my LINUX box at work from home and see my calendar,
e-mail, EMACS, and even the IDL Workbench! Wow. Who knew!?
It works great, except that the darn thing cannot
display any kind of object graphics window. This is
a HUGE disappointment, naturally, as I can't use my
iTools. ;-)
Is this an IDL problem, do you think, or an X server
problem? Would I have to do some kind of tweak to get
this to work? Any info is helpful.
Cheers,
David
