X/software specializes in system software for UNIX computers and
computers networked to UNIX systems --- from consulting on research,
design, implementation, and testing up to training.
'X' and '/' stand for UNIX, not for X Window. However, most of
our projects are in the X Window area. We've done several ports
of X11.2 to X11.5 to UNIX and non-UNIX machines (e.g. X/TOS/window
for Atari computers) as well as specialized server extensions.
At the moment, we're very busy with porting software to UNIX and
X Window. Therefore, we created tools (no emulators) for porting
from FlexOS (X/FlexOnX), GEM and X/GEM (X/GemOnX), and Windows
(X/WinOnX) to UNIX, X Window and Motif -- without modification of
source code.
Our customers are software developers like DMC, hardware vendors
like Atari, or industrial clients like Johnson Controls Inc.

I've finally hung out my shingle officially, after doing consulting
work and training in X/Xt/Motif for several years. My particular area
of expertise has turned out to be projects involving Motif internals;
but I'm now particularly looking for interesting short-term Xt-based
development projects.
