Hello all.

I'm new to the InterViews world.  I went about compiling 3.1-beta using
Sun C++ 2.1.  I ran into a few problems, and solved them as follows:

 in iv/src/include/OS/math.h

 there is a declaration for both

   static boolean equal(float x, float y, float e);
 and
   static boolean equal(double x, double y, double e);

 which Sun 2.1 complains as being ambiguous (I guess it treats floats and
 doubles exactly the same -- shame on them...)

 So I simply commented out the float declaration.

 Moreover, in iv/src/lib/Dispatch/dispatcher.c there the declaration

   extern "C" {
       extern int select(int, fd_set*, fd_set*, fs_set* struct timeval*);
   }

 which is an exact redeclaration from <sys/stropts.h>, which is #include'd.
 So, once again, nuke this declaration.

 After that, everything built smoothly.

 Question: when I run idemo, the layout is VERY UGLY.  The labels overlap
 the objects they describe, and the Palette buttons appear starting in the
 menu bar.  Is this a bug in my build, or in idemo itself?  Furthermore,
 the sample programs which have a pull-down menu of fonts only show
 dark black boxes (as if the font names are drawn with foreground=background=
 BLACK).  Any solutions?  I am running on a color monitor.  I admit that I
 compiled with the b&w kit option, which I now understand is not part of
 3.1beta.  Could this be causing a problem?

 Thanks,
  -Todd
