understood, but same gcc 2.95.2 compiled with motif 1.2.x does not show the ugs I experience with motif 2.1.21.
Also on Windows I expewrimented with motif 1.2.4 and 2.1.21 with GCC 2.95.2 and Microsoft C 6.0. The DX executables, produced by either compiler, linked aginst 2.1.2 motif libs seems to be very bugy, at least in my hands. Therefore I doubt there may be some problems in DX code which are not compatible with MOTIF 2.1.21 Suhaib **************************** Suhaib M.
