Chin Fangs response is correct in the case of most X software.
However, in the case of xfig, you will want to use 'xmkmf' to create
the Makefile for your system.  xfig is one of the cleanest compiling X
programs I have seen for ISC 2.2.  Just type 'xmkmf' and then type
'make'.  It will compile error free.

Now if someone could just show me how to get xfig to work with my 2
button mouse!
