Make sure that "X11" (perhaps "X11Usr.pkg", but I don't keep careful track of the names) is installed. If installed, you will find an application called "X11"in your /Applications/Utilities folder. Double-click to start it. You now have an X windows server running -- serves basically the same purpose as Exceed, but probably with fewer bells and whistles.

Shortcuts, sort of, can be defined in the "Applications" menu of X11. Otherwise, just do normal remote logins and such from the xterm shell provided when X11 starts up (as described by David Maas).

I am familiar with Exceed on PC and have used this app to perform such fu=

 need and it gets displayed on my PC.
How can I mimic this on my MAC, created shortcuts etc.
Thanks for your help.
