We are implementing a HELP system on a software using motif. Looking at
the reference manual for the XmManager widget it looks as if someone  
(at OSF) has given at least some thought to implementing a help system, 
but I simply cannot work out exactly how we are meant to take advantage
of the provided features - and It seems reading the current version of
the Motif Style Guide, that Motif does not have any help facilities.
Do you know if motif 1.1 will have any help facilities ?
Have you any suggestions concerning the way to implement Help facilities
with Motif ?
