[comp.unix.ultrix] Text Widgets under DECwindows

habibi@rainbow.ecn.purdue.edu (Shidan Habibi) (10/29/90)

I have just moved from a networked SUNs (Sun OS 4.0.3; running twm,
X11 V.R4  backward compatible with R3)to
networked DEC 3100s (ultrix; running DecWindows, X11 R3).
I am attempting to run an 
X application on the DECS which I had developed on the SUNs.  

Does anyone out there know how I must set up my environment in
ultrix so that my X program behaves the same as it did before on
the SUNs.

I have a specific problem.

1.  When I run my application and when I type into my text 
widget, instead of the text appearing in my text widget,
it appears in the active DECterm (window).  What can I do
to solve this problem?


Please send any responses to:

habibi@ecn.purdue.edu

If there is an interest, I will post a summary of the responses.

Thanks in advance.

It appears from your description that the application has not accepted input
focus. Add this line to your .Xdefaults:

*input: True
