&gt; Hmm, yes, I thought about writing the client in Java, since
&gt; everyone's got it, but there is the problem of efficiency.
&gt; Java, being such a high-level language, is not going to have
&gt; the same efficiency of some well written and optimized C code.
&gt; Especially when the client that I'm envisioning will operate as
&gt; a parallel database to the server...
&gt; 
&gt; I had considered trying to write it for X windows, but then balked
&gt; when I discovered that Motif costs something like $150.  *sigh*
&gt; perhaps Java is the only solution...  Ack, gotta go and learn a
&gt; new language. :( :)

There is an attempt to make a free Motif clone (called Lesstif). 
Perhaps a look:

<A  HREF="http://www.lesstif.org/">http://www.lesstif.org/</A>

I've never used it...just heard of it.
