I'm not aware of any patch that allows it to be compiled without Motif. If you want to start a flame fest to try to provoke someone into writing it, well, I guess we'll see how well that works. Off hand I'd prefer not to have a flame fest in comp.windows.x. How about in comp.infosystems.www instead? :-) Changing the subject slightly, if you want justification for using SGML/HTML, I'll just point out that Linux has been distributing docs (not man pages) in SGML for some time now, and XFree86 started using SGML/HTML with the recent release of 3.1.1. The world is moving that way; it's too late to lead, so you better get in line and follow. :-) Whether or not you distribute an httpd or a browser, you should at least have the docs SGML-ized, because it's a certainty that almost everyone is going to get one or the other or both if you don't have one as part of the base system. -- Kaleb
