Yes, but CDE is based on Motif 1.2 *not* 2.0, which effectively killed off any migration to 2.0 for the big names in Unix. I'm not exactly sure the magnitude of difference between 2.0 and 1.2+CDE. I do know that the 1.2+CDE has the spinbox and combobox widgets from 2.0. X-Inside's CDE apparently includes the standard 1.2 development stuff (includes, libraries, uil compiler, man pages). I suppose you could get 1.2 to co-habitate with 2.0, but it might be tricky. -john == jfieber@indiana.edu =========================================== == http://fallout.campusview.indiana.edu/~jfieber ================
