Mosaic has a bunch of wrappers to create generic gui objects, e.g. frames, forms, pushbuttons, menubars. There's sort of a one-to-one correspondence between the Mosaic Xmx objects and the Motif widgets. Someone who is ambitious could rewrite all these objects to use another widget set, but right now you need Motif. The only thing you can do without Motif is compile the HTML widget, which doesn't buy you much right now. > > Can Mosaic be compiled with LessTif? Anyone tried this? > Ha ha ha ha. You slay me. Wait, let me dry my eyes. Ahem, ah, sorry, couldn't help myself. Last I looked (about two weeks ago) there wasn't enough to LessTif to do more than write hello world. It's going to be a long while before there's enough of LessTif to build Mosaic. -- Kaleb KEITHLEY
