I used make to compile the sample programs. They did not run properly. They did not crash, but they did nothing. It was like they exited as soon as they started. It appears that my directory structure for x11R5 is not correct. Does the path for X11R5 have to be c:\dvx? I would prefer to put the files in another directory. I had changed the environment variables to point to that directory. Is the c:\dvx path required and compiled that way without environment variables? It may be that I still have to set the environment variables properly. Don ah230 AT leo DOT nmc DOT edu Any or all of the above may true. What application? Does it have Imakefiles? What makefiles did you start with in your port? QDeck did not do a good or complete job in porting either X11R4 or X11R5 to DJGPP, and in particular they don't supply sources. Are you sure you have the X11R5 libraries? DESQview/X _does_ often assume that things will be present in the DVX home directory; usually these things can be changed by environment variables. This is very system- and program- specific, unfortunately. A better place to ask may be comp.os.msdos.desqview. -- Stephen Turnbull / Yaseppochi-gumi / http://turnbull.sk.tsukuba.ac.jp/ anon FTP: turnbull.sk.tsukuba.ac.jp Check out Kansai-WWW, too ------------> http://pclsp2.kuicr.kyoto-u.ac.jp/
