Well, you can get the Xview code, whether or not you can make it work is
another question. If you have not done it yet and you have GCG, I wouldn't
bother, as GDE is being merged with the WPI in the next GCG release.
Since that does run on Alphas (either Unix or OpenVMS), your problem would
be solved. The reference for that is, hmm...., here:
