MacX Server and X Client Source Code



Is there any way to take the source code of an X application and move it to
a Macintosh so that the client piece as well as the server piece both will
run on the Macintosh?

I know I can run MacX to another X client, but the X client does most of
the processing. I want the Macintosh to do all of the processing.

No, currently there is no way you can take the X client source code
compiled under Macintosh OS and run with the MacX server under Macintosh
OS. No X11 library and Xt intrinsics are available for Macintosh OS, and
there is no way to compile the X client under Macintosh OS. Only the MacX
"server" environment is supported under Macintosh OS.
