- One of problem to use X11R5 to replace OW2/3 is some of the useful
- applications in OW2/3 do not work, such as mailtool (a extreamly useful one),
-
- I use mailtool all the time with the X11R5/olwm. Absolutely no problems
- of any kind.
-
- The biggest problem I have seen is OW applications expecting fonts that don't
- match in X11. The spreadsheet WingZ and project planning too Autoplan both
- have font problems.
-
- Is there a solution to the above?
