Motif(r) is the industry standard graphical user interface, (as defined by
|
|
the IEEE 1295 specification), used on more than 200 hardware and software
|
|
platforms. It provides application developers, end users, and system
|
|
vendors with the industry's most widely used environment for standardizing
|
|
application presentation on a wide range of platforms. Motif is the
|
|
leading user interface toolkit for the UNIX(r) system.
|
|
|
|
Here is what you might ask. (excerpted from The Open Group FAQ)
|
|
|
|
Q: What is Open Motif? How does it differ from standard Motif?
|
|
|
|
A: Aside from some different copyright and license statements, both
|
|
Motif and Open Motif share the same functionality and source code. The
|
|
primary difference is the software license for each of the software
|
|
products. Open Motif source code and binaries can be distributed royalty
|
|
free under The Open Group Public License as long as the operating system
|
|
upon which Open Motif is running meets the OSI's Open Source Definition.
|
|
Motif is made available under the standard Open Group software licenses
|
|
and requires the payment of source code and royalty fees.
|
|
|
|
Visit http://www.motifzone.org for more information about Motif.
|
|
|
|
NOTE: Some ports with GNU configure do not know that Motif 2.1 requires -lXp.
|
|
In that case, you need to edit Makefile after configure, or, hack
|
|
configure(.in) before configure.
