Libsx is a library of code that sits on top of and to the side of the
Athena widget set. Its purpose is to make writing X applications
*much* easier. To accomplish this, libsx encapsulates a large
portion of the uglier details that arise while programming in X and
it fills in some gaps that exist with the Athena Widget set (such as
a widget for drawing graphics); libsx tries to simplify the common
case down to a single function call with only a few arguments.

This utility notably decreases the startup time of your X sessions, provided
that you start a number of X clients automatically during the X session startup.
Most people, for instance, start X clients like xterm, xclock, xconsole and
xosview from their .xinitrc, .openwin-init, .xtoolplaces or .xsession file.
These X clients are started simultaneously (in the background) which puts a
high load on the X server and the OS:
* The X server is not multi-threaded, so all X clients are competing to get
access to the X server and to use its resources, which causes a lot of
overhead (= delay).
* The performance of other (non X related) tasks served by the system degrades
badly due to the high load.
If the system has not enough RAM to hold all the X clients, it is swapping
heavily, resulting again in a lot of delay.
On the Sun platform there is a utility called 'toolwait' which solves these
problems: it starts one X client in the background, waits until it has mapped
a window and then exits.
Xtoolwait is a free implementation of exactly the same idea.
gaddr is a nice simple little address book written using the GTK+
widget set. It holds addresses and any other information you want to
know about a person. It basically acts like a pile of alphabetized
3x5 cards on which you can write whatever your little heart desires.
XBoing is a blockout type game where you have a paddle which you use
to bounce a ball around the game area blowing up blocks with the ball.
You win by obtaining points for each block destroyed and each level
completed. The person with the highest score wins.
