This is slightly technical for this thread but since it touches on 
everything you guys are talking about....

I'm writing an X app to run under linux and am trying to get PMX to behave.
I'm using a GUI-builder (XForms) under linux and so far all my program
does is put up a window. Works under linux & solaris AND OS/2 (PMX).
HOWEVER
If I change the size of the window....(curiously ONLY in one dimension)
the window just flashes briefly on the screen and the program exits.
This is not what I want to happen... under the other OS's the window
actually changes size and the program runs!

Any ideas?

Dan
