The following individuals have software that provide screen magnification in 
X Windows, which usually is run with UNIX. You should contact them directly 
or get the software and build it on your system.


     UnWindows V1.1

What's New with UnWindows
=========================


Dynamag V1.1
------------

A new (third) magnification option has been added. Previously, when
in 'mobile' mode, the magnification area was sticky to the mouse
pointer, moving around with it. The "Follow" button now defaults to
having the magnified image always appear in the stationary application
window, while the area being magnified is still determined by the
movement of the mouse pointer. The new mode is much more smooth in its
operation than the original mobile mode (which has been retained),
though it is no longer directly analogous to a real magnifying glass.

A new button has been added to the settings window to allow the user
to select between the two 'mobile' behaviors. While the new mode
works properly under both X11R5 and OpenWindows, it has been
discovered that the original 'mobile' mode does not work correctly
when running under OpenWindows. We believe that the improved
performance and smoothness of the new mode will be preferred by most
users.

The overall speed of response is noticeably improved when magnifying a
large area.


Coloreyes V1.1
--------------

Changes made to the settings window in V1.0 formerly would not take
effect until they were saved and the program restarted. They now take
effect as soon as the settings window is closed, without having to
save them permanently (with the "Save settings" button). Actually,
changes to the colors are made immediately; changes to the number of
colors, and to the percentages associated with them, take effect when
the "Done" button is pressed.

In V1.0 the scrollbars did not always respond properly to the
functions bound to the left and right mouse buttons.  This has been
fixed in V1.1.


General Improvements
--------------------

The font size used in UnWindows V1.0 was not available in OpenWindows.
The size has been changed to one available both in X11R5 and
OpenWindows.

Coloreyes and dynamag have now been tested by the authors on a DEC
3000 (Alpha) workstation in addition to Sun SPARCstations running both
SunOS/X11R5 and Solaris/OpenWindows. In general, the code has been
made more X-compliant than it was in the earlier version.  This should
cut down on warnings and incompatibilities when compiling UnWindows on
new platforms.

A PostScript version and a plain-text version of the user's guide are
now available in addition to the LaTeX source document.

How to Obtain UnWindows
=======================

To connect to the RPI CSLab anonymous FTP directory, ftp to
'ftp.cs.rpi.edu'.  Login as 'anonymous', and type your e-mail address
as a password (this is required). The file README lists each
subdirectory and its general contents. UnWindows V1.1 is in the
'unwindows' subdirectory.

If you are using gopher, connect to cs.rpi.edu, port 70, and select
"RPI CSLab Anonymous FTP Server."

If you are using Mosaic, use the URL gopher://cs.rpi.edu/ and select
"RPI CSLab Anonymous FTP Server."
