xa-1.2beta
==========

xa is an animation package written using the XView library. Its main
feature is a panel interface for convenient access to animation,
display, and colormap functions. On a typical high-end workstation a
display rate of 50 frames/sec or better can be achieved with 400x400
8-bit images.

The source code is in xa-1.2beta/xa-1.2beta.tar.gz.  Binaries can be
found in xa-1.2beta/xa-1.2beta-???.tar.gz, where "???" indicates the
architecture (e.g. "dec" for DEC Alpha, "sgi" for Silicon Graphics
machines (IRIX 4.x), "sun" for Sun Sparcs running SunOS4.1.x, and
"sol" for Sun Sparcs running Solaris 2.x (may not be available)).  The
binary archives contain man pages and other miscellaneous helpful
files from the source distribution.

Note to compile from the source code you will need the XView 3.x
libraries and include files.  XView is available from the X11R5/X11R6
distribution, the OpenWindows distribution on Suns (typically in
/usr/openwin), or from:

   ftp://ftp.x.org/contrib/libraries/

DEC Alpha and SGI ports of the XView sources are available from:

   ftp://ftp.sdsc.edu/pub/ccms/xview/

Enjoy!
