In this thread you said you tried both openmotif and lesstif. I've
been told and believe that openmotif is the cause of the problem I
have with some of the menus in Xastir. But no one has ever been able
to give me a step by step instruction on how to remove it. I've tried
all the vague instructions, I've asked the Apple forums, I've asked
people here all without any luck.
Step by step, how do I uninstall openmotif so I can install lesstif?
Thanks.

Any suggestions?
What version of XQuartz are you running (http://xquartz.macosforge.org/trac/wiki)?
Do you have lesstif or some other OpenMotif installed (I prefer
lesstif as I've had fewer problems with it)? See below for my
variant of the directions for installation.

Installing Xastir on a Mac: (use in concert with the INSTALL doc
file which has more detail I don't wish to reproduce here)
by Chip (N1MIE) [email protected]
1. Install a Motif package (openmotif or lesstif can be installed
via Fink) [I found openmotif caused problems on my system (odd menu
issues), so I removed and installed lesstif which worked great. You
may also need to try it both ways.]
2. Ensure an entry similar to the below is in your '.bashrc' or
'.bash_profile' file:
LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/local/lib:/usr/lib:/usr/X11R6/lib
*3. Install libproj (can be installed as 'proj' via Fink)
Install/update libtiff (can be installed via Fink)
Install libgeotiff
download and uncompress file (http://www.remotesensing.org/geotiff/geotiff.html
)
"./configure" or "./configure --prefix=/sw" (second places files
same place as Fink)
"sudo make"
"sudo make install"
*4. Install ShapeLib
download and uncompress file (http://shapelib.maptools.org)
"cc -c shpopen.c"
"cc -c shptree.c"
"cc -c dbfopen.c"
"ar cru libshp.a shpopen.o shptree.o dbfopen.o"
"sudo cp libshp.a /sw/lib"
"sudo ranlib /sw/lib/libshp.a"
"sudo mkdir /sw/include/libshp"
"sudo cp shapefil.h /sw/include/libshp/"
*5. Install ImageMagick (can be installed via Fink) [I had problems
when I used a pre-6.2 version]
or install GraphicsMagick (download from site and follow Mac OS X
instructions found in PLATFORM.txt) -- there is a mistake in this
file it says to issue a command "ln -s sw /sw" but it should read
"ln -s /sw sw", the make will not work until this link is made
*6. Install wget or curl (normally already present on OS X Macs)
*7. Install gpsman and gpsmanshp (I haven't tried this) [Not
available via Fink]
*8. Install Festival (I haven't tried this)
*9. Install GDAL (can be installed via Fink, must be done manually
on Intel Macs unless you enable Fink unstable tree)
download and uncompress file (http://remotesensing.org/gdal/)
"./configure --prefix=/sw --with-local=/sw/lib --with-gif=internal
--with-jpeg=internal" (may need to modify if you don't use Fink)
"sudo make"
"sudo make install"
*10. Install Berkeley DataBase (can be installed via Fink)
11. Build Xastir (commands need to be executed from within directory
where Xastir source resides)
"./bootstrap.sh"
"./configure --with-bdb-libdir=/sw/lib --with-bdb-incdir=/sw/
include/db4"
or "./configure --with-bdb-libdir=/sw/lib --with-bdb-incdir=/sw/
include/db4 --prefix=/sw" (latter for use with Fink)
You can type "./configure --help" to get a list of all options.
Two other good options are "--with-rtree" and "--with-profiling".
* Optional installs
