You downloaded it from my siddiqi.webjump.com? it is just a libs and
clients.

Help me write XF86SUP.SYS for Win32. that will definitely be a way out of
Exceed

Why do you want to dump Exceed?
I think Exceed calims to be X11R6.x based? but when i went through their
X-headers
and extarcted symbols from their DLLs it sounds to me a mixture of X11R5 and
R6..
no wonder why it is sort of slow particularly with MOTIF apps.. ;-)
I may be wrong...
