This book is meant for users and programmers of the OPEN LOOK Graphical User Interface (GUI).

Example programs and screen snapshots are used to introduce the major OLIT widgets. The last part of the book includes a quick reference guide to the OPEN LOOK Window Manager (olwm), X Toolkit (Xt) Intrinsics functions, and OLIT widgets and functions.

# Build Instructions for Examples

If you are running Sun OpenWindows, go to each directory and enter "make OLITDIR=$OPENWINHOME" to build the programs. For other UNIX systems with OLIT, you have to define the environment variable OPENWINHOME to the directory where the OLIT header files and libraries are located.

Please consult the UNIX Desktop Guide to OPEN LOOK for a complete discussion of how to build and use these programs.
