Hi,
I was still using Xforms 0.88.1, but have noticed on this mailing list that the "real fancy" stuff was only available when upgrading to the new OpenSource Xforms. Finally the 1.0rc4 became available for FreeBSD as a software port, so I installed that. For LyX I had to add "-lXpm" manually in the configure script when the -lforms test is done. During the make, however, there is this unpleasant message: GUIRunTime.C:32: #error LyX will not compile with this version of XForms. Please get version 0.89. If you want to try to compile anyway, delete this test in src/frontends/xforms/GUIRunTime.C. So, are we again moving away from the recommendation to use 1.0 Xforms? Why is Xforms 1.0 not yet supported? Regards, Rob. PS: has Xforms OpenSource a CVS access and an official webpage by now?
