i'm in the process of trying to install TeX on a DECstation 5000/240 
running (i think...) Ultrix 4.2a and DECwindows Motif. TeX appears to be 
working, but i'm having problems digging up a screen previewer that will 
compile (let alone run): xdvi, for example, fails to compile because of 
missing header files.

(a) has anyone managed to get xdvi to compile and run under ultrix/
decwindows?
(b) failing (a), is there another good dvi previewer that will run in 
this environment?
