- DonHopkins 9y agoWith X11/NeWS, you were running two window systems at the same time on one machine, right out of the box! Even with NeWS 1.1, you were still running parts of SunView underneath. One cool thing that X11/NeWS could do was that X11 clients could transparently use scalable PostScript fonts, including the nice hinted "Folio" fonts, and even "user defined fonts" written in PostScript like the Hershey and Dijkstra fonts. The X11 server could call back into the NeWS PostScript interpreter to render the font at any point size!
