There can never be too much information about anything, really. I am on a consulting project that requires some GUI on top of scientific software and has to only run on Unix (Linux really). I got a head start so that I can get the example on Github (for all to see) before I am on that payroll. Motif is not free for commercial software; I would seek another toolkit to do this. > > Holy hell, Motif hasn't died a well-deserved slow and painful death yet??? > Motif is not dead. AMTEC's TecPlot just recently sqitched from Motif (over 20 years now) to something else (looks similar but is not). But there is still a lot of software that uses Motif, not just legacy software. I recall SDRC's I-DEAS (a CADD package from the 90s) had a Motif look, and it was running on windows over Xwin32. Oh, those were great old days. Rick is not the only old guy around! I'd use Xt straight up but I figured I really like the CDE (from IBM) and the MWM look of Motif.
