Hi Guys,

Just fetched this and compiled this.  Only problem is that the machine I am
trying to display it on is running OpenWindows (v2) and acm has problems
with the fonts.  The exact message I get is ...
    [brolga /home/ant 35] acm brolga
    acm: display goanna:0.0 doesn't know font *courier-bold-r-normal--17*

Any ideas on how I can get around this ?  Also, am I going to have lots of
problems like this with fonts etc if I move completely to OpenWindows
(currently only goanna is running OW on a trial basis) ?  If I have the
X11 fonts as well can I use them ?
