a) No xv wants the whole root window if you do it that way, but other programs can write _images_ to the root window if you so desire. b) It can use just a window (it is an image viewer) c) The OP asked about "radar loops", which I take to mean image data that is changing (thus is why xv works). -- Hal Burgiss -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
