I don't know if it would work, but it's worth a try. -kee Alphalpha Software, Inc. | motif-request@alphalpha.com nazgul@alphalpha.com |----------------------------------- 617/646-7703 (voice/fax) | Proline BBS: 617/641-3722 I'm not sure which upsets me more; that people are so unwilling to accept responsibility for their own actions, or that they are so eager to regulate everyone else's.

Something that would > display like: > > Moose C2A > Sierra CRDGW1 > SC Zephyrus > Mobius Durango > HPX02 Neva > Dwaskill Milkweed > Rigel Karnack > Hudson Kreskin The mwm manual says that the "appearance of menus can be configured based on the name of the menu." The popup shell is named "menu" and the RowColumn widget is named according to the entry in your .mwmrc file. Therefore, if your .mwmrc contains: Menu YourMenu { "Moose" "Sierra" "SC" "Mobius" "HPX02" "Dwaskill" "Rigel" "Hudson" "C2A" "CRDGW1" "Zephyrus" "Durango" "Neva" "Milkweed" "Karnack" "Kreskin" } just add the following to your mwm resource file: Mwm*menu*YourMenu*numColumns: 2 Mwm*menu*YourMenu*packing: PACK_COLUMN -- Walt Gaber walt@DRD.Com DRD Corporation uunet!apctrc!drd!walt (918) 743-3013
