Yes, it is a very good endorsement. Unfortunately, at LessTif we found that
they claimed that DX will compile with LessTif without even testing themselves.
Now, we are getting mail bombed by LessTif users that it does not work, though IBM said at their web pages *it does.*

To help LessTif users I am working of DX port for Cygwin using LessTif 0.88.1.

Here is a copy of mail from one of the IBM DX user to LessTif Team.

Suhaib, if you can confirm those behaviors, will be nice.

If confirm, we have to extract the misbehave test cases.
if the time resources permit it.
