	Hello.  Does anyone know of a good standalone "Motif-like" GUI
	for MSDOS?  I know that it is possible to find these, but I think
	that they are commercial products only.

	How I know:  There's a GRRRREAT PD paint program on wuarchive called
	"NEOPAINT.EXE" and the paint program is nice and all, but the REAL
	suprise is the environment!  It has the look-and-feel of Motif, and
	most definately is programmed in an OO language.  If anyone has any
	information on this PD program, like where they got the GUI from, or
	if they wrote it themselves, PLEASE TELL ME!

	If nothing is available in the public domain, I am considering writing
	one.  Hell, UNIX was originially PD, why not release a PD windowing
	system that others can add on to?   Maybee even turn it into a PD
	operating system to compete with Wnt!
