Motif 1.0??? I'd be willing to discuss experiences with Motif 1.1.1 or newer,
but 1.0 is a little old now, isn't it? Alot has changed since the 1.0 timeframe,
and therefore most of the issues involved in testing 1.0 have been addressed in
some form in later versions (look at VTS that was introduced in 1.1.1).
