Hello X World, I am still in need of help regarding the following
programs: xterm, xdbx, xfig

OS Summary:
^^^^^^^^^^^
	Sun3 and Sparc station 1: running SunOS4.0.3
	On SPARC:
		MIT server R3 and
		OSF MOTIF version 1.0
	    or
		Sun OpenWindows server FCS 1.0 and
		OSF MOTIF version 1.0
	On Sun3:
		MIT server R3 and
		OSF MOTIF version 1.0

xterm: This problem only exists on the SPARC running OpenWindows. It works
fine on the MIT server on either Sun3 or SPARC. The problem is when I
try to have scroll bars on the xterm window by typing:

xterm -sb

Here is the dbx output:

(This one's for you, Brian Smith and Phillip Shaffer:

xdbx: (the problem only occurs on SPARC, since the Sun3 version is fixed.)
I have the three patch files now for xdbx (therefore I am at PATCHLEVEL 1?)
Over the last few days, a patch was sugguested to fix xdbx for a system 
running 4.0.3: 

>    /* ask window manager for input focus: */
>    {
>      XWMHints wmhints;
>      wmhints = XGetWMHints(XtDisplay(vpane), XtWindow(vpane));
>      wmhints.input = True;
>      wmhints.flags = InputHint;
>      XSetWMHints(XtDisplay(vpane), XtWindow(vpane), &wmhints);
>    }

It looks like it might work, but I receive a bad window error on the line
wmhints = XGetWMHints(Xt....

I believe that I put the patch in the right place (ie. After the line
vpane = XtCreateManagedWidget("vpane", vPanedWidgetClass, parent, args, n);)

Does this mean that a managed child cannot have its WMHints adjusted? What
am I doing wrong?

xfig:

Okay, I have now brought xfig up-to patch level 6, yet I am
still having problems with getting it to run.

I know that these are old (and maybe stupid) problems, but I really
would like to get these programs working. Any help would be greatly
appreciated!
Thnkyou in advance.
