I haven't played with it in ages so no idea how it has evolved but it does have X windows interface. MSWLogo is the one I like. Con: it only works on M$ Windows. Pros: It is based on ucblogo; its author, George Mills, has put in a heck of a lot of work especially in supporting multimedia. it is fairly easy to make it play music/sound, do animation etc. It comes with a demo that has a nice set of examples for doing many of these things. Check out http://www.softronix.com and ftp://cher.media.mit.edu/pub/logo/software The same can be done in the FreeBSD world now that it has such good multimedia support.
