I found a bug report in upstream openmotif with a bug that resembles
this bug very much. Most likely the problem in the motif library. Patch
available there.
** Package changed: nedit (Ubuntu) => openmotif (Ubuntu)
** Bug watch added: bugs.motifzone.net/ #1257

For Jaunty and Intrepid lesstif2 and nedit are in new versions in my
PPA, please test. I would be very good if this problem goes away by it.
Reading through the document in my last comment I don't think the
package qualifies for a SRU, but instead we might try a backport [1].
Please let me know if
Just want to let you know, I made improvements to lesstif2 (which is now
in Debian; sync request for Ubuntu in bug 369383). I hope that I will
come up with an improved version of nedit tonight or somewhere this
weekend. I will include them in my PPA [1]. When testing is successful,
you could figure
I should have added a big TIA at the end of my message. And I wish I had
seen the dialog between Paul and Daniel before adding my $.02 with that
message, because it is now apparent that this is getting attention from
people smarter than me! Before entering my comments, I had only seen the
initial r
I have also encountered precisely this problem with Nedit in 8.10. What
is particularly vexing is that the problem manifests in different ways
in different contexts. Sometimes the Open dialog does seem to work
correctly, sometimes it gets caught in the "Please select a file" loop,
sometimes the dia
Paul,
I can't reproduce the problem with this new build, but... it's linked
against Lesstif, instead of the OpenMotif library. That changes things
completely---and the upstream doesn't seem too fond of the idea, as the
program prints

Paul, I get a bunch of errors that all look like this with different
numbers. I don't see 111 right now, but it might show up other times.

So far, no. The error messages, and being able to open the file
normally, are mutually exclusive.

Hi Paul,
I just thought I would mention that I also get this error, and have been
getting it for several months.
Like Daniel said, it does not always happen. I just tried it twice on
the same file and got the error once and not the other time. However,
it is repeatable in a single nedit sessio
Hi Paul,
Attached is a screenshot more or less illustrating the error. NEdit was
invoked from the terminal (the errors are too numerous to fit even in
that tall window), and gives an error dialog attempting to open
start.html.
Note that the X/Motif errors begin as soon as you hit Ctrl+O, and then
