So far, I haven't made it work. I get a bus error with a backtrace as follows: % dbx xrn core Reading symbolic information... Read 10786 symbols (dbx) where XtTextInvalidate() at 0x23c50 updateSubjectWidget(left = 79, right = 79), line 974 in "buttons.c" foundArticle(file = 0x132fd8 "/tmp/xrn361-a14283", ques = 0x89fa4 "Article 361 i n news.announce.newusers (9 remaining)", artNum = 361), line 1733 in "buttons.c" artNextFunction(widget = 0x179350, client_data = (nil), call_data = (nil)), line 2527 in "buttons.c" artNextUnreadFunction(widget = 0x179350, client_data = (nil), call_data = (nil)) , line 2553 in "buttons.c" _XtCallCallbacks() at 0x2ae18 XtCallCallbacks() at 0x2b004 Notify() at 0x1d908 _XtTranslateEvent() at 0x40824 DispatchEvent() at 0x2f6c8 DecideToDispatch() at 0x2fb50 XtDispatchEvent() at 0x2fbb8 XtAppMainLoop() at 0x3006c XtMainLoop() at 0x3004c main(argc = 1, argv = 0xf7fffb0c), line 208 in "xrn.c" I'll take a pointer to some's version that works. Much thanks. Probably something I did wrong, but I'm not an xpert (yet).

There are bugs in the Athena Widgets that must be patched for XRN to run under X11R3.
