The recent discussion of the Motif and lesstif libraries reminded me of my desire to compile the `mp' and `mptool' programs. The source code is available as ftp://ftp.x.org/contrib/utilities/mpdist-3.3.2.tar.Z `mp' provides pretty PostScript printing of mail messages, digests, etc. I prefer it to genscript or other PostScript formatters when printing copies of e-mail.
I myself don't use mptool which is a graphical user interface for mp. (These programs were developed by a person at Sun, hence the `tool' suffix.) mptool requires Motif libraries. Has anyone tried to compile it with the lesstif library? If so, have you been successful? I was considering creating a Debian package of mp and the other command-line programs in the package. Since I don't have any Motif libraries I would not be able to create even a static linked version of mptool unless it could be compiled against the lesstif libraries. -- Douglas Bates [EMAIL PROTECTED] Statistics Department 608/262-2598 University of Wisconsin - Madison http://www.stat.wisc.edu/~bates/
