  abstract =     "The DECwindows architecture builds on industry
                 standards and adds enhancements to provide greater
                 performance and reliability in the window environment.
                 The architecture is based on the X Window System
                 developed at MIT, which consists of three main
                 components-the X server, Xlib, and the toolkit
                 intrinsics. The DECwindows implementation extends X in
                 several ways. DECwindows uses algorithms that expose
                 additional interfaces, supports a broader choice of
                 programming languages, provides a complete set of tools
                 for application development, and promotes ease of use
                 and user-interface consistency by means of a style
                 guide. In addition, the DECwindows architecture
                 includes industry-standard interfaces and extends the
                 server to take advantage of PostScript,
                 three-dimensional graphics, and imaging.",
