DESCRIPTION
AmiWin is an X11R6 (X-Window-System) package for AmigaDOS,
somewhat similar to "DaggeX" by Kari Mattinen, or the
X11R4 package by GfxBase.
X11 is a GUI interface standard that is particular common
on Un*x systems. Many popular Un*x programs (such as xv,
Mosaic, NetScape etc.) use the X11 standard. AmiWin can be
used to redirect the GUI of these programs to your Amiga.
It is also possible to run some X11 programs directly on
your Amiga.
AmiWin includes an X11 server with several display drivers
and a few X11 clients including the window manager "twm".
AmiWin supports the following graphics boards and chipsets:
- OCS/ECS/AGA: monochrome
- OCS/ECS/AGA: 4-256 colors
- A2024: 4 greyscales (reg. version only)
- Picasso-linear with VillageTronic software: 256 colors
