If not, >as I fear, who sells it and for how much? Motif is a commercial product layered on top of X so you can't get it for free and you can't get it from X (I'm pretty sure). However, it is RIDICULOUSLY cheap! When we got ours (last year) the costs were: Master license $1000 Object code $40 (to copy form someone else's master license) To order, contact: Open Software Foundation 11 Cambridge Center Cambridge, MA 02142 ATTN: MOTIF ORDER ADMINISTRATION Questions reguarding license agreements or order status can be directed to the Technology Order Administration group (617)621-8755. PS - As I understand it, DEC plans on including Motif in their standard VMS and Ultrix releases, and I would be surprised if other operating system vendors don't follow suit, so after that it won't cost you a thing.
