I was hoping You might give some tips about a program to run on Windows (XP
is most important, when 98 SE is possible that is a plus) which would allow
me to work on a Linux (Gutsy Gibbon) computer over the network by means of
the X11 protocol.
To do that you need an X server for the Windows computer. I've used
Hummingbird Exceed 6.0.1 under XP. It's of an age where it might work
acceptably under 98. There's also Xwin32, which I haven't used. Also
there's a free one but it's rather limited and not very fast. (You get
what you pay for.)
The first one I found is
X-Win32 but that is both proprietary and not really cheap.
Yes, that's the one.
By "proprietary" you mean "not open source", right? I don't know of
much 98 open source software, or any open source X servers. But, it's
been a few years since I looked too.
If you can manage to work through text, it is much faster.
