I have updated the version of xdbx 2.1 on expo.lcs.mit.edu to patch level 2.

If you do not want to ftp the entire distribution, the patch is also
available for ftp on expo.lcs.mit.edu, provided you have the
version of xdbx2.1 at patch level 1.

For those without ftp access, I am sending the source to comp.sources.x
at the same time. So, it should show up sometime later.
This patch addresses mainly bugs reported by a number of users on the net.
In particular, the patch includes
- fixes in calldbx.c to use termios instead of sgtty structure
- fixes to allow xdbx to compile with gcc
- fixes to allow xdbx to compile with Xaw library without XAW_BC defined
- fixes to make dialogue window behave correctly for all commands issued
- fixes for the use command
My thanks to the following people for providing bug fixes to xdbx:
Dana Chee (dana@thumper.bellcore.com)
Dave Gagne (daveg@fs1.ee.ubc.ca)
Arturo Perez (aperez@cvbnet.prime.com)
Manavendra Thakur (thakur@zerkalo.harvard.edu)

Enjoy,

P.S. I do not have access to a DECstation 3100 any more. So I will not be
able to diagnose any problems with xdbx running on the DECstation 3100.
