Can anyone tell me where I might find a precompiled version of R4 or R5
for the DEC 5000 under Ultrix 4.2???
I am having much trouble compiling either version with the gcc compiler
Non-intuitive!!  (but then, who said UNIX was intuitive?)
Specifically I am looking to augment the existing version I have of X
with the Athena Widget set, since the only widget set available at the 
moment is pre-Motif Dwt. 

we are on the Internet, so I can ftp it.  Everywhere I look though, people
seem to have removed R4 from the ftp sites... does that mean that R5 is so
backwards-compatible that it would be silly to install R4?

and yes, my favorite foods are Shake N' Bake chicken, Lipton cup a soup,
and microwave tamales.

would appreciate e-mail or posting to... dan@sunnyside.com
Thanks!
