And you think *you've* got problems!  I just compiled the code for
the server on a Pyramid, and running uw via the amiga CRASHES the
Pyramid!  I haven't tried the Mac uw program yet, though...

I think the problems you're getting are because uw for the amiga
is only good for version 1.0 of uw, and doesn't have the extended
options that version 2.0 has (no window resizing, no titled windows,
etc...)  I guess we'll just have to wait until the later version
is working...

I don't think you're doing anything wrong.  Check to see if your
server is version 2.0.  I think it's barfing all over the place
because uw on the unix box doesn't communicate properly with uw
on the amiga.  Just conjecture, of course...
