Sorry to add to all of the X-talk on here but...

I finally got Mouse-X installed on my Cube after removing the 0's that
VMS added to the end of all of the .Znn files (I was doing this when
I read the post about it being available as one file...).  Anyway,
it is up and running.  Now, I thought It'd be nice to compile a few
games for Mouse-X, to really make it usefull.  I went and got xtetris
from uunet.uu.net.  I followed the directions in the README file, namely
I ran 'xmkmf'.  Here's what happened:

[7](bonehead)/users/zazula/temp/xtetris-2.4> xmkmf
mv Makefile Makefile.bak
imake -DUseInstalled -I/usr/lib/X11/config
/usr/lib/X11/config/Imake.tmpl:199: unterminated character constant
imake: Exit code 33.  Stop.

Is Imake.tmpl broken or is it not this easy to build programs on
the NeXT?  I don't want to waste a lot of time on this (mine or anybody
elses) but if it is a simple thing, could someone steer me in the right
direction?

P.S.  Here are some disjointed thoughts:  Does anyone know if it is bad
	to keep an OD mounted all the time?  I do just that to increase
	my available disk space.  I'm wondering if the disk is exposed to
	dirt/dust while it is mounted.  Is the sliding cover pulled back
	all the time it is in the drive?

	It get's pretty dusty here in Tucson and last time I looked at the
	back of my cube, it had a layer dust over the fan!  Well, today
	I installed a no-nonsense (or was that sheer-energy) solution...
	Yup, hacked up a pair of black knee-high hose and draped them over
	the back.  I thought some of you might find *something* in that...
