Re: [Bug: 21.5-b14] Are Lucid Dialogs really Motif or Athena?

The docs are correct: anything that makes Motif less likely to be used saves developer hair from being pulled out. Motif dialogs have been buggy at times IIRC (I know the menubar was). :-P Seriously, I wrote section of INSTALL with scissors and pastepot. My preference is obvious, but it's evidently not realistic. :-) Thanks for the report; I'll probably make configure in 21.5 conform to INSTALL, what to do about 21.4 is up to Vin. I'll also check to see whether there should be a gtk stanza there; I think that is handled elsewhere but it should be checked. -- Institute of Policy and Planning Sciences http://turnbull.sk.tsukuba.ac.jp University of Tsukuba Tennodai 1-1-1 Tsukuba 305-8573 JAPAN Ask not how you can "do" free software business; ask what your business can "do for" free software.
