Re: [Plplot-devel] xwin.c is now split

[Maurice L. <mj...@ga...>]

I've been following this discussion but been too busy to comment until
now.

I agree Joao that the best design would be to NOT put xwin_common.o in
libpltcltk, that it should go in a separate library e.g. libplxwin.  OTOH
Alan's argument that it should go in libpltcltk as a pragmatic issue (to save
work, simplify, etc) is compelling.  So I can be happy with Alan's choice.

One possibility that might satisfy everyone, if it could work, is to use
an escape function in the xwin driver for the missing commands.  Then there
is separation without significant increase in work.  Has anyone looked into
this approach?
