Description

The Analyzer is an Xt/Athena program that displays arbitrary text objects as colored rectangles on a white plane. These objects can be moved, edited, and deleted. New objects can be created. Objects may be hierarchically selected by contacting the SpaceMan Sproc, asking for a spatial parse to be performed, and then selecting all objects in the appropriate structure.
