This is very strange. I have noticed this for a while on my system at work,
but I have the gutter here at home on a 17 March build from CVS. I figured
it was something in my configuration, or selections for ./configure which had
caused this. I'm running the same version of SuSE 7.3 with just about the
same patch levels. I actually created a test account at work and found that
it, too, is missing the gutter. I didn't report this because it works at
home, and I figured I was doing something wrong.
Scratching head.

Using Lucid menubars.
Using Lucid scrollbars.
To get the tabs you need to have widget support compiled in. Seems
like awhile back, someone monkeyed witht the configure script and it
doesn't autodetect things right anymore. It used to default to the
lucid widgets but doesn't.
try explictly using --with-widgets=yes when you configure.

It's exactly the opposite. It used to autodetect things wrong in some
cases. ./configure; make; make install _must_ work correctly. People
who want platform-dependent features will be accomodated as much as
possible.
configure geeks are welcome to make widgets happen.
Jeff> try explictly using --with-widgets=yes when you configure.
This is the right solution.
However, it seems not to always work on 21.5 post-merge.

i don't recall these cases... it seemed to work ok for me.

This is the right solution.
it's not documented. --with-widgets isn't even mentioned in the
INSTALL file.
if you do "configure --help" it tell you that "lucid, motif, athena,
or no" are the metioned options.
And when people look in PROBLEMS, will that help them? no.
are widgets to be considered truly optional? The customize buffers
are pretty useless without them.

Ahh, *that* is why I got these customize buffers

Yes, it mostly worked for most people. There were a couple of cases
where it insisted on doing the wrong thing.

That's a bug in the INSTALL file, then.

A bug in configure.usage. I believe gtk and yes are also accepted.
It's possible that a patch got overlooked here, as ISTR somebody
submitting a patch to synch configure.usage to reality.
Jeff> And when people look in PROBLEMS, will that help them? no.
I don't see a PROBLEM, here, once the documentation is fixed.

Jeff> buffers are pretty useless without them.
They had better not be useless! Ugly, OK, but not useless. If they
are, that's a bug in the implementation of the widgets or the
particular platform. Custom has some ugly bitmaps that it uses when
native buttons and toggles aren't available.
As I say, a rework of configure to get the toolkits right would be a
good idea. But there were a couple of people who were not getting an
xemacs if they simply used ./configure.

that was me stephen
i found that those options were missing from configure.usage when i
first started using the build package, that was a long time ago as i recall
gtk was left out of the list because that gets set when you use --gtk=yes

and cant you setup customize to use text "buttons" anyway ??
i seem to remember that from when i first started using XEmacs but
that was eons ago (well it seems like eons to me anyways)

Apparently not for all buttons

P.S. The platform is Linux, of course. XEmacs is from CVS (a few days
old
now) and configured w/o any options.

i think you are right... if you grep configure, it lists gtk & yes in
one of of the widget error msgs...

ok... but it's a problem until then. :)

well, something broke then. I get the same cutomize buffer that Vaclav
sent a screenshot of if I just run "./configure"
ugly would be better than missing. :) and I guess ugly is in the eye
of the beholder. the xpm glyphs were better looking to me than the
crappy Xaw buttons I see.
I will try it with --with-gtk=yes and see how things look

xemacs if they simply used ./configure.
i thought that had been done. Didn't someone do a major reworking
for all the various Xaw variants awhile ago? If I remember right,
wasn't that the main cause of the configure foulups? people
installing Xaw3d and such as Xaw.
