Synopsis
/usr/openwin/bin/*
Programs from the OpenWindows graphical user interface environment. This environment is obsolete; the preferred environments are CDE (the Common Desktop Environment) and GNOME, and you can no longer run OpenWindows directly. However, for compatibility, many OpenWindows programs continue to be shipped with Solaris . The user level programs such as cmdtool and shelltool are no longer present, although a number of standard X11 programs are to be found in this directory. See also cde.
