Configuration:

Sun sparc, B/W screen, Version SunOS4.1, Sun C++ 2.0

Only one problem in build phase:
In file ....../lib/IV-look/filebrowser.c, unistd.h is included and the compiler
complains about setgid with 2 linkages.
I have Just comment in the inclusion of unistd.h

Now, I tried idraw:

1)
It pop up with a black bg, and white fg. I have try to change this behaviour
by using resources initialfgcolor, and initialbgcolor, but no way, I can only change
fg color, e.g writing black on black, and that's not what I want.

2)
Maybe related with 1).
In the 4 last entry of brush menu (to specify arrows), I don't see any arrows, but
if I select one of this menu entry, the menu is correctly displayed in the upperleft
corner, but will not be drawn in the drawing area (only black space leaved)

3)
I tried to use the accentued and specials chars, using the Meta key. Certain chars
are displayed, others are not, specially c cedilla, eacute !!!

4)
If I try to print a file with arrowed line in it, priter (Apple LW) complains
with leftarrow undefined.
See below

psbanner: opera:dp  Job: caaa00293  Date: Thu Apr 18 16:03:22 1991
psif: opera:dp lpd start - Thu Apr 18 16:03:23 1991
%%[ Error: undefined; OffendingCommand: leftarrow ]%%
%%[ Flushing: rest of job (to end-of-file) will be ignored ]%%
psif: end - Thu Apr 18 16:03:31 1991

That's all for this time.
