It's a simple windowing system which has been ported to various platforms,
including PC's and Sun's. The functions of both the window manager and
terminal are built into the basic windowing system. Escape sequences are
used to communicate window operations, and the source I have does not
support color. Still, it's fairly tidy, and quite small--a good fit for the
philosophy of VSTa.
