I have been having some trouble getting uwm and the athena widgets
to cooperate.  To wit:

	1.Place a title bar and iconify symbol on main window
	2. Explicitly controlling size and position of widgets
		within other widgets
	3. Writing graphics into viewport

The graphics into viewport has received a bit of discussion lately, and is
now a moot issue for us.  But hese other two problems might be remedied
by:
		
	1. Using a different window manager
	2. More clever use of .Xdefaults
	3. Better control of widget creation in client program

A manual for uwm, or better yet source, might be thge ticket here.  If I
go to a different window manager then I still have the same problem of
insufficient documentation.

	Thanks for your support,
