RE: HTML to PDF Generator (X-Server on i)

["Dennis Lovelady" <iseries@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Thanks, Crispin.  To clarify, X is the Bell Laboratories graphical user
interface on which Windoze was based.  (Using a very broad brush, it is the
"Windows" of Unix.  It's also sometimes referred to as X-Windows.)  An X
Server provides a graphical login to terminals that might connect over the
cloud.
