- * OSF/Motif 1.1.2 for 386BSD-0.1 *

-
- OSF/Motif 1.1.2 is finally available for 386BSD-0.1
-
- The distribution is BINARY ONLY and is NOT FREE because of OSF licensing
- policy and royalty payment scheme.
-
- The cost of OSF/Motif for 386BSD is $120 + postage. This is the lowest
- fee I could come up with to cover all the expenses mainly due to
- royalties to OSF and cartridge tapes.
-
- I have organized the following distribution tree:
-
- bin:
- mwm* mxgdb* uil* xgen*
-
- include:
- Mrm/ Xm/ uil/
-
- lib:
- X11/ libMrm.a libUil.a libXm.a
-
- lib/X11:
- XKeysymDB app-defaults/ config.Motif/ system.mwmrc
-
- demos:
- Imakefile hellohebrew/ motifburger/ mre/ widgetView/
- Makefile hellokanji/ motifburint/ periodic/ xmsamplers/
- dogs/ hellomotif/ motifgif/ periodickanji/
- fonts/ motifanim/ motifshell/ uilsymdump/
-
- xgenDemos:
- Example Xgen.intro dp.xbm mtn.xbm
- README.EX address.list gnu.xbm
-
- The size of the distribution is a little over 18M.
-
- As you will probably have noted I have included all the demos released
- by OSF and two non OSF applications. One is mxgdb, a OSF/Motif frontend
- to gdb written by jtsillas@sprite.ma30.bull.com. The other is xgen,
- a very usefull tool for creating graphical frontends to shell scripts
- or other Unix programs; xgen was written by kurt@zorro.cecer.army.mil.
-
- Everything is ready to run; you just have to extract the tape in
- your X11 installation.
-
- I can offer email, fax, phone (the order represents preference) support
- for initial installation problems. There shouldn't be any since I've
- been using it for a while with 386BSD 0.1.40 kernel available on
- agate.berkeley.edu. I didn't try the binary distribution of XFree86
- but used MIT X11R5 patchlevel 17 source tree + XFree86.

- Just a last note. Please don't start a flame war about commercial use
- of usenet. I don't want (and won't) become rich with this operation, my main
- activity is completely different. I'm just very please with 386BSD
- (it's great!) and it would be nice to turn it in a new ODT; I'll soon
- start investigating the portability of Postgres or OBST on 386BSD.
-
- Thank you for your patience.
