I have just placed the latest patch (patchlevel 5) to the Dirt UI Builder
on expo.lcs.mit.edu (18.30.0.212) for ftp access, under:
contrib/dirt.patchA1.5.Z
The distribution has been updated to this patchlevel and is also on expo under:
contrib/dirt.A1.5.tar.Z
This patch is large due to one minor change in the way dirt generates its
interfaces. Now each Widget ID variable generated is prefixed with "WI_" to
stop clashes with other variables and functions. Because Dirt generates its
own interface there are a lot of name changes in the Dirt source.
To apply this patch; cd to just above the top of the Dirt distribution
and use:
patch -p < dirt.patchA1.5
The previous patch (patchlevel 4) failed on two minor chunks due to a muck up
with the RCS id.s ("Rel" instead of "Exp") for dirt_editor/dirt.c and
dirt_editor/convert.c. You should check that these lines are correct before
applying patchlevel 5:
dirt_editor/dirt.c:
"$Xukc: dirt.c,v 1.22 90/10/25 14:44:17 rlh2 Exp $"
dirt_editor/convert.c:
"$Xukc: convert.c,v 1.13 90/11/04 13:03:55 rlh2 Exp $"
I've updated the patch, contrib/dirt.patchA1.4, to fix this. Thanks to
Mike Stump <mrs@ms.scs.csun.edu> for pointing this out!

Dirt is also available via ftp on:
ftp.Adelaide.EDU.AU (129.127.40.3)
under
/pub/X/R4/contrib/dirt.*
It also seems that expo is being shadowed on:
uunet.uu.net (192.48.96.2)
under
/X/contrib/dirt.*
However uunet seems to be currently a bit behind and does not contain the
patches.
