A widget set from Sony is now available for anonymous ftp from expo.lcs.mit.edu (18.30.0.212), as compressed tar file /contrib/Xsw.tar.Z. If you can't ftp, never fear, these sources will be included in R3.

Well, it assumes Xtk, not Xt; SScroll won't compile under 4.3BSD/Vax pcc (attempts to assign to a cast; (int)frep = foo is *not* valid...); SScroll will not compile under gcc 1.26 either (the XtOffset macro is called `not constant'...

Has anyone made progress on actually using
this toolkit under R2?
I don't know. It's user contributed code, we didn't try it before
placing it on expo.
Perhaps the wrong version was put on expo?
I somehow doubt it, but you never know. I'll forward your message to
someone at Sony.dana@dino.bellcore.com (Dana A. Chee) (08/30/88)

Well, it assumes Xtk, not Xt;
Actually, it needs Xaw.
SScroll won't compile under 4.3BSD/Vax
pcc (attempts to assign to a cast; (int)frep = foo is *not* valid...);

_boxWidgetClass
_clockWidgetClass
_popupWidgetClass
_XtGrayPixmap
_formClassRec
_simpleClassRec
all of which are undefined. Has anyone made progress on actually using

Ok, here are some hints (are you listening Sony).
1) Edit (in lib) SBitmap.c Swindow.c. Replace the font 8x16kana with
something else (I used 8x13).
2) Edit SBitmap.h, Make the default bitmap path something reasonable
(This should be a define in the makefile).
3) Edit all makefiles to make TOP whatever you need.
4) compile, you should get as far as smenu, which will die since there
is no popupWidgetClass.
5) Edit SButtons, change xbuttons to sbuttons. Change
closeBox.bitmapFile: null to a real bitmap file (null doesn't exist
in examples/bitmaps). Change
closeBox.highlightBitmapFile: highlight_close_box to a real bitmap
file. Change resizeButton.bitmapFile: resize_button to a real bitmap
file. Change smallIcon.bitmapFile: small_icon to a real bitmap file.
6) load SButtons with xrdb -merge (or copy it to your app-defaults).
7) run sbuttons (one down)
8) load SBitmap with xrdb -merge (or copy it to your app-defaults).
9) run sbitmap (two down)
10) load SDialog with xrdb -merge (or copy it to your app-defaults).
11) run sdialog. This will probably fail after you push the button.
If anyone gets any further (like Sony), could you please post
directions or patches.
