Godel, Escher, Bach: an Eternal Golden Braid
Escher is a collection of libraries for X Window System written purely
in Java. It consists of an X11 protocol implementation (similar to
xlib for C/C++), and its extensions such as GLX, the OpenGL rendering
protocol.
* How To Run
Install a Java VM, for instance from http://java.sun.com .
Inside the directory "escher-0.3",
$ java gnu.x11.test.Hello --help
$ java gnu.x11.test.Hello
It will pop up an X window which says "Hello World!".
$ etc/bin/jdemo gnu
You will see a list of X applications and test suits you can run.
* Troubleshooting
When you get a connection error, the most likely problem is that
TCP communication is turned off on your X server. When you start
the X server on the command line, leave away the -nolisten tcp option,
or configure your login manager to allow TCP connections on the server.
