I wonder if I didn't compile correctly or something... Doubtful. The reason I have made all my releases with Motif is because the LessTif version was useless, and I *depend* on a working Java port for $$. It cost me less time and money to spend the money for Motif, and to make sure the build is done with Motif. > If I should use Motif, which version should I buy?

FWIW, as long as I'm building public releases, I will be using Motif, and will be building releases that don't require you to have Motif. If you want Motif for your own work, feel free to buy it.
