  Broadway
       
           A standard which the {X
          Consortium} is currently (January 1997) developing and plans
          to release soon as an {open standard}.  A prime goal is to be
          more {bandwidth}-efficient and easier to develop for (and to
          {port}) than the {X Window System}, which has been widely
          described as over-sized, over-featured, over-engineered and
          incredibly over-complicated.
