In this thread you said you tried both openmotif and lesstif. I've been told and believe that openmotif is the cause of the problem I have with some of the menus in Xastir. But no one has ever been able to give me a step by step instruction on how to remove it. I've tried all the vague instructions, I've asked the Apple forums, I've asked people here all without any luck.

Step by step, how do I uninstall openmotif so I can install lesstif?

I was going to ask the same question Bob did, how did you install it? If you used Fink (my preference) or MacPorts then it is easy.

For Fink:

fink remove openmotif
or
fink purge openmotif
(purge also removes configuration files, this is what I recommend)

For MacPorts you'll have to ask someone else as I don't even have it installed anymore.

If you installed it manually, then removal will be more difficult.

From Fink on Lesstif:
Package: lesstif (1:0.93.18-1)
To install the compiled package...
The following other packages (and their dependencies) must be installed:
    lesstif-shlibs (= 1:0.93.18-1)
  The following other packages must not be installed:
    openmotif3
To compile this package from source...
  The following packages are also compiled at the same time:
    lesstif-shlibs (1:0.93.18-1)
    lesstif-bin (1:0.93.18-1)
The following other packages (and their dependencies) must be installed:
    automake1.6
    x11
    x11-dev
  The following other packages must not be installed:
    [none]

So it looks like at least Fink thinks you can't have openmotif and lesstif both installed. Hmm.

What version of XQuartz are you running (http://xquartz.macosforge.org/trac/wiki)? Do you have lesstif or some other OpenMotif installed (I prefer lesstif as I've had fewer problems with it)? See below for my variant of the directions for installation.
