		 a command panel using text and colour icons 

I have just placed a two new versions of the bricons package on 
export.lcs.mit.edu in the contrib directory.  Both versions have been upgraded
to display pixmaps (colour bitmaps) and use the xpm libraries written by
Arnaud Le Hors.

The two versions are:

Athena widget version:
/contrib/bricons-athena-3.0.tar.Z

Motif1.1 widget version:
/contrib/bricons-motif-3.0.tar.Z

The bricons program allows the user to start up applications from a configured 
command panel on a workstation display running X.  The bricons interface can 
consist of up to sixteen buttons which can display some text or an icon. Each 
button is used to execute a shell command using the Bourne shell.  Each button 
can be configured to display a single spring loaded popup menu with up to ten 
more buttons.

Please report any bugs to bri@ukc.ac.uk (until Jan 29th 1993)
