P.S. Does anybody know a free Xt based toolkit that has all these
modern widgets?

Oops. I'll check. I thought I got most of them.

Well LessTif has all but Tab control and Tree view. Ben thinks that I
should write a tab control for lwlib but I'm not sure I am sufficiently
motivated (or able). Doing the Motif stuff was bad enough without building
my own toolkit. I have to address Steve's concerns still as well.
So if anyone knows of one, I'm happy to try and support some of the more
arcane widgets. I think Tk might do some of this but supporting it would be
hard.

I have code for some Xt tree widgets. I won't know for a few weeks
whether I'll have time to support it, but I'll email it to anyone
who's interested.

Cool.
Is that `Cool; I'll have a copy'? or just `Cool'?
NB: The code should now be available from
ftp://sensei.co.uk/misc/iWidget-0.1.20.tar.gz
ftp://sensei.co.uk/misc/iWidget-0.1.20.tar.bz2
The tree widget is in ITree{.c,.h,P.h}. It currently inherits from the
IPrimitive widget, but it should be straightforward to make it inherit
from either Xt's coreWidgetClass class or Xaw's simpleWidgetClass
instead.

Probably the latter. At the moment the pressure is for an X tab widget as
I have put code in XEmacs that will use it if available. I can think of
lots of cool uses for a tree widget but I probably won't be doing the
coding and therefore don't feel the effort warrants the value at the moment.
But who knows, the amount of time I'm spending in hotels at the moment I'll
probably get around to it at some stage.
