Have I missed something in tvtwm that allows me to see these messages, or is this one of those features of XView which requires the use of OLWM/ Probably doesn't *need* olwm, but probably does need some window manager that pays attention to the properties "_OL_WINMSG_ERROR" and "_OL_WINMSG_STATE" on the application's window. Try grepping for "_OL_" in olwm.c for more interesting OpenWindows properties.
