Hi!
After mucking about with the sources some more, I decided to upgrade the
installed copy of LessTIF with the one provided in the 4.2.1 release and
then recompiled the actual xgrass EXE. It runs now and pops up a window,
but when it prompts me for a database, I only see the first part, (the
path where the locations are stored - GISBASE) I don't see any
of our installed locations or mapsets. How do I set this up under
XGrass? Or is there still something wrong with the executable that's
preventing these choices from appearing?
A year ago I tried to use lefftif for compiling XGRASS under FreeBSD. And
I had similar problems. Now I use Motif for compiling XGRASS, and it works
fine under FreeBSD and Linux. I think, problem in lesstif.
Besides, for XGRASS better to use old version of Motif (not 2.x). I used
Motif 1.2.4.
Sorry for my bad English.
Felix.

Ah, I see. Unfortunately I don't think this lab has access to Motif...at
least
the libs are not installed on this system. I've managed to get the
program to run (as I've stated already), but it appears that
Database/Location/Mapset
selection isn't working properly. I'll still fiddle with it. It might
even
be worth it for me to compile a copy of GRASS on another system (maybe
Linux) and see if I can get it working better over there.
Thanks, Felix.

Hah! Your English isn't bad as long as its understandable! :>
