Last night I compiled 21.2 from the latest CVS sources to check out Daniel Pittman's new athena configuration stuff. Here's what I found along the way. 1. Even though I had been successfully building with Xaw3d, I hadn't installed the 3d headers. If I understand the emails which had been passing back and forth, this was a good recipe for a crash. The new configuration code warned me about this and defaulted to plain old athena. Good job, Daniel. 2. Next I installed the neXtaw library (into the default location generated by xmkmf) and the header files ended up in /usr/X11R6/include/neXtaw. (This is a Mandrake 6.1 system, BTW). The new configuration code could not find the headers in this spot, so I added a symlink from /usr/X11R6/include/X11/neXtaw to /usr/X11R6/include/neXtaw; this made the neXtaw configuration work fine. Daniel, I don't know if you want to support /usr/X11R6/include/neXtaw, it seems like a good idea to me, but you have a much better idea than I do. 3. (Off topic) OK, now I have this XEmacs with this spiffier scrollbar - is it possible to get this to scroll by more than one line? This seems like the most feeble (and slowest) scrollbar I've ever used; why would I want it? Anyway, that's what I found. Nice work, Daniel. - vin
