Description: This is a digitally signed message part.
Mac OS X is Unix based, but has its own unique quirks, so both would apply.

Unix is a file system, not a GUI, so both unix and macx apply on the Mac. unix and x11 apply on other Unix systems.

Yes, of course. I meant that is it NOT a windowing system. Macx and x11 are windowing systems. Unix is an operating system that both macx and x11 use.

And of course, Mac OS X can also run X11 apps as well as 'native' GUI apps (themselves not that native, coming from NeXT and Mac OS <=9). A+ Paul -- [ signature omitted ]
