Yup I use NEdit too.
I personally don't buy Dido's rants about Motif bugs. True, Motif has bugs
(who doesn't) and true, Motif uses the Xt library. But then, so does
Athena, and I don't see anyone complaining about Athena.
My main gripe with Motif used to be its non-availability. Even today, the
Motif license is not an open-source one. So for new development, you'd be
stupid to use Motif. But I think it's still good for existing software out
there.
