  abstract =     "Version 2 of the eXcursion product is a complete
                 rewrite of the successful Windows-based X server
                 software package. Based on release 6 of the X Window
                 System version 11 protocol, the new product runs on
                 Microsoft's Windows, Windows NT, and Windows 95
                 operating systems. The X server is one of several
                 components that compose this package. The other
                 components are X Image Extension, the control panel
                 (which constitutes the user interface for product
                 configuration), the error logger, the application
                 launcher, and the setup program. An interprocess
                 communication facility enables the eXcursion components
                 to communicate in a uniform fashion under all three
                 operating systems. A unique server design using
                 object-oriented programming techniques integrates the X
                 graphics context with the Windows device context into a
                 combined state management facility. The resulting
                 implementation maximized graphics performance while
                 conserving Windows resources, which are in limited
                 supply under the 16-bit version of the Windows
                 operating system. The control panel was coded
                 completely in the C++ programming language, thus making
                 full use of the Microsoft Foundation Class library to
                 minimize development time and to ensure consistency
                 with the Windows user interface paradigm.",
