(and vice versa!!!) i know that in comp.windows.x(.motif) there was a bit of discussion about this very subject, but at the time, i didn't need to know so i didn't save the messages. a recent request for some kind net soul to forward me this discussion thread yielded only requests for me to forward the discussion on to other interested parties (alas, no forwarded discussion thread was received). therefore, i'd like to open this discussion thread again. question 1: if you have developed a motif interface for your application, and you want to port it to run in ms-windows, what's involved? (problems, headaches, tricks of the trade, how difficult . . .) question 2: reverse of question 1 -- what's involved in porting an ms-windows interface to motif? assistance in understanding what's involved and how difficult these ports would be is greatly appreciated in advance. annette myjak arm@sps.com

CommonView comes in DLL form. It captures the commonalities amoung MSwindows, Presentation Manager, and hopefully, Motif. Their package comes with Glockenspeil C++.
