On September 15, 1998, the STScI director, Dr. Steven Beckwith, announced a special observation opportunity to the astronomical community during the Leonid Meteor Shower. During the peak of the Leonid meteor shower on November 17, 1998, HST will be pointed near the anti-radiant for ten hours. Anyone who is interested can submit ideas to STScI for scientific observations during this time. ... There are no HST observations in the archives for objects in this field. ...

Describes how XPA access points can be added to X Toolkit (Xt) programs. ... Thus, in order to add XPA access points to the standard Xt event loop, the following routine should be called before entering the loop: int XPAXtAddInput(XtAppContext app, XPA xpa) . The XPAAddAddInput() routine will add XPA access points to the Xt event loop by making calls to the standard XtAppAddInput() routine. ... If the xpa argument is NULL, then all active XPA access points are added to the loop. ...
