- Just wanted to comment that I was able to compile the
- gwm (Generic Window Manager) for Linux. This diffs are minor.
- I was then able to get the Motif Emulation up - NICE!!
-
- The only problem you will have is in malloc.c and the much discussed
- problem with bison/flex.. These don't work properly when
- building WOOL (Windows Object Oriented Language). lex and yacc
- work without a glitch.
-
- BTW: I used lex & yacc on a NightHawk SYSV, as I haven't located
- source code for the REAL versions. I can upload the diffs
- and the lex/yacc'ed files if requested.

- gwm is available at export.lcs.mit.edu in /contrib/gwm*
-
- olvwm is nice, but mwm is certainly preferred!
