Sorry for the delay, Harold.  I usually only scan the list archives from
work, so I'm not around on the weekends.

I saw your success with shared Xt on Friday and wondered whether I should
do a quick lesstif release, but..., I wasn't sure shared Xt was the only
thing keeping lesstif from going shared, I didn't have much time right
then, and your release was still in test, so I thought it could
wait a bit.

I'm embarrased to say that I haven't run mwm in a long while (if at all).
I usually just test the library with a bunch of our internal apps before
releasing.  Incidentally, there is a problem with Modal dialogs in this
release, but I haven't yet had time to debug it extensively or reduce a
test case to send upstream.

I haven't yet updated to XFree86-bin-4.3.0-5, so I thought I would try
your test.  I had bigger problems, though.  I can't even get a window to
move.  I can click on the title bar, icons, etc. and they respond by
indenting, but I can't get a menu to select close from.

Does anyone else who hasn't updated yet get different results?

I am sorry, Harold, but I am swamped right now.  I won't have time to look
at this in depth for few days.

PS. If you do make the release, please fix where the man pages are
installed for me.  Thanks.
