You think? Why not? Is Motif on Linux beyond hope?


Well, nedit with Openmotif on Fedora 7 at least is broken (for me). Fedora has officially abandoned Openmotif, and I suspect other Linux distributions will eventually follow. That leaves lesstif, which appears to be on life support. It would appear that virtually no new apps, including commercial apps (I use a lot of commercial engineering software) are using Motif, so there is little incentive for anyone to fix bugs in Openmotif/lesstif/Xorg/Linux, or even determining where the bugs are.
