Hi Richard:
This isn't any help with the DX port issues (I may be tackling that later
on), but I'm curious on your setup with OpenMotif and XFree86. Where
did you find all your goodies? If you could point me in a couple directions,
I'll go off and happily play with my wife's G4. I haven't coded on a Mac
for a long while, but I'm anxious to see what my IRIX and Solaris stuff
looks like on a Mac running X (the server, not the version!).
Thanks for any help, and good luck with your port. I'll keep an eye on
that thread.
