X Athena widget set library

Xaw is a widget set based on the the Xt (X Toolkit Intrinsics) library. It provides a set of graphical user-interface elements ("widgets") such as menus, scrollbars, dialog boxes, text-input areas, and so forth. The X clients distributed with the X Window System itself, as well as many others, use the Athena widget set.

XFree86 and X.Org have made a number of major improvements to the Athena widget set, resulting in version 7 -- this version features widgets customizable in appearance and event handling (a.k.a. "themes"); an extensible image loader (currently supports bitmaps, gradients, and pixmaps); numerous enhancements to the Text widget, text source and text sink objects; and multiple-column support in the SimpleMenu widget.

The older Athena widget library corresponding to version X11R6.4 of the X Window System can be found in the libxaw6 package.
