Author Bio
Dan Heller is President of Z-Code Software Corp., makers of electronic messaging software for UNIX, Mac, and PC/Windows platforms. His history with the X Window System dates back to 1987, when he developed some of the first toolkits to use Xt. In 1990, he developed Z-Code's first product, Z-Mail, using the Motif toolkit, concurrent with the writing of the first edition of the Motif Programming Manual, Volume 6A. Dan has a degree in Computer and Information Sciences from the University of California, Santa Cruz, and has since developed and brought to market many applications that integrate various well-known user interface styles from SunView to Motif to Open Look. Dan is also the author of O'Reilly & Associates' XView Programming Manual. Paula Ferguson is a writer for O'Reilly & Associates. In addition to co-authoring this book, she has written articles for The X Resource, helped update other volumes in the X series, and authored Volume 6B, Motif Reference Manual. Paula has also developed and taught courses on Motif for the Open Software Foundation and worked on interface-design and software development projects. Paula graduated from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology in 1990 with a B.S. in Computer Science and Engineering. She lives in Somerville, Massachusetts with her two cats, but spends as much time outside of the city as possible. When she can escape, Paula likes to go rock climbing, cycling, hiking, backpacking, and mountaineering.
