IDL and X terminals [message #1667]

I'm investigating buying X terminals, and the vendors talk about capabilities
they have which is supposed to speed up the transmission of images by using
compression. What I'm unclear on is whether these extensions would be relevant
to IDL or not.

Tektronix talks about X Imaging Extension (XIE); NCD talks about Simple Imaging
Extension (SIE). Are these two names for the same thing, or are they similar
but imcompatible products? Are either of these relevant to IDL at all?

Thank you,

Bill Thompson
