Hi!

I compiled olwm (OPEN LOOK Window Manager) yesterday on a NeXTStation
running version 2.1 og Mouse-X. I have so far only built the olwm,
not any of the ol-apps (filemgr, cmdtool ...). I used tape-2 of the
release from MIT (requires imake, maybe...). Compiled the contents of the
/contrib/lib/olgx (libr. for OPEN LOOK) and /contrib/windowmgrs/olwm.
I had to manualle edit /change the makefiles, but that was no big deal.
If you want the makesfiles (and the sources, not many KB), I'' send
it to you. I've considered creating an anonymous ftp at our NeXT
(129.241.18.70 IP address), but haven't got any time yet :-(

Let me here from you! Im interested in public domain software for the
NeXT, we got our NeXTstation recently, so we don't have much software
on it...

yours
