- Not knowing exactly what you are looking for, I can only give a guess.
- With DECwindows/Motif (at least with the "old" developer toolkit) comes
- set of tools called DXMport. They belong to kit itself and give you
- utilities to translate DECwindows/XUI programs to OSF/Motif (native)
- at source code level. It eats only C and UIL source and writes you new
- versions of the files where MOST of the routine work has been completed
- for you. Also it tags places in code which it can't translate from XUI to
- Motif (tag is something like: >>>>> Developers decision: ...).
-
- Was this what you were looking for ?
