[comp.windows.x.motif] Motif xmeditor

mrt7455@evtprp0b.UUCP (Michael R Tucker) (05/13/91)

	I've been playing around with the xmeditor we received with Motif
1.0.1 and 1.1.1 on our Apollos here.  They compile fine and seem to run fine 
until I want to save a file.  I get a response "Unable to save file" or 
something like that.  Has anyone else encountered this problem?  If you have, 
did you find a work-around solution?

Check the permissions on the directory you're in.

Dont use the xmeditor for code development.  If you look at the code,
the file-save routine block writes the contents of the text widget
## INCLUDING ## the \0 at the end.  The C compiler will ralph all 
over that \0.
