Which version did you try?  Are you trying to use the released version
0.54 or one of the development versions?  The development versions don't
require Motif.  I haven't futzed with it in a while but last I did (~ 1
month ago) there were still some problems with it hanging and dropping
into the debugger pretty routinely.  I'm not on the e-mail list for it but
I surmise that one of these days it'll start shaping up.

Regards,

Brian
