I know that if someone want to sell Motif, he needs to buy the source from OSF and compile it. And if he wants to use the name "Motif" to sell their compilation, he needs to pay extra royalties. Well, when someone buy a compiled Motif (for about US$ 70,00), he receives a great amount of tools to develop applications with it, plus the libraries binaries. But there are *many* guys, like me, who won't use these tools. I, for example, would buy it only for the shared libraries, because with them many applications (like StarOffice) could work faster and with less memory. So, I think: US$ 70,00 is really *much* money for only one or two files. I don't want to program with Motif, nor use the Motif Window Manager for X (I use Afterstep) so, why not someone sells only the libraries? Or even best: why Linux users don't join to buy the source, compile these libraries, and distribute them for free? Maybe I'm crazy, but who knows? It's an idea... ;-) []'s Alexander Gieg =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= By: Alexander Gieg E-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] URL: http://www.geocities.com/TimesSquare/3222/ IRC: AlexG =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= There will be a time in which *all* the computers in the Earth will be using Linux!
