My sense of humor? Heck no! It's the very foundation of my wealth and fame, if people could just download it for free I'd be out 20, 25 cents a year. EVERY year!

Generally, yeah. xmkmf is just a bit of a wrapper around imake, so I believe some meta-build system (like ebuild, maybe) do invoke imake directly for their specific purposes. But for anything interactive, `xmkmf -a` is pretty much wired into the fingers. > I take it that you did not read the imake book or build the actual > imake system used by ctwm. Modulo a few minor changes like additions of source files, I doubt there were many substantial changes from the imake system as it came from twm. Leastwise, not until I killed it. -- Matthew Fuller (MF4839) | [email protected] Systems/Network Administrator | http://www.over-yonder.net/~fullermd/ On the Internet, nobody can hear you scream.
