Hello,
This patch adds support for autoconfiguring and generating the appropriate
headers using AT&T’s iffe.
Iffe was shipped as part of the original CDE release within the DtKsh and has
been tested to work with all UNIX compatible shells (including the original
Bourne shell.)
Kind regards,

Hi Chase,
I sincerely doubt that autoconf works anymore on half of the systems they list,
and from what I’ve seen of bug reports, they either don’t respond or tell users
their system is the problem. I could probably check later to see if the
existing CDE autotools branch is compatible with Thom
I’m for changing the default font, if an option to revert to the old one is
kept, if possible. Right now, the fonts look way better on Debian than
OpenBSD and hopefully a new default font will fix this.

My purpose is not to decrease supported operating systems with the introduction
of automake. Automake was (at least in theory) supposed to be a build system
that we wouldn't have to maintain ourselves with the most supported operating
systems that could be build projects without the tools even b
Hi,
I sympathize with wanting to keep things the same. I believe the default CDE
font was supposed to be Lucida Sans, but we’re using Lucida Bright for some
reason. Does anyone have access to the Pellucida family? It was created by
Bigelow and Holmes to be a hand-tweaked version of Lucida Sans
Hi Chase,
I am not sure what behavior GNU is expecting, but older releases of GNU make
and autoconf worked fine. It seems that if the purpose of autoconf is increased
portability, the onus should be on them to repair breakages, not on vendors who
have customers demanding compatibility with deca

Keyword directory. An empty argument != directory. I have a hard time believing
that Xinuos would let their OS become unusable for automake, have you emailed
them at all about the issues you've been facing?
Thank you for your time,

Hi Chase,
I just tried to build GNU make on UnixWare and it errors out right away:
../build-aux/depcomp: line 126: syntax error at line 127: ‘done’ unexpected
I don’t think UNIX compatibility is really a GNU priority unfortunately…
It is actually documented in the System V interface Definition
I can get behind this, I know there was talk of using motif's XFT support for a
bit, but I don't think anything ever came of it...
Thank you for your time,

While this is impressive, it still won't be relevant for very long due to our
impending transition to autotools, did you ever get that make=gmake hack to
work? I was also thinking that a good way to solve the rm problem would be to
build the upstream ksh and link it to /bin/sh, since their rm is
Hello,
The first patch removes an unnecessary dependency on Freetype that was the
result of including a private Motif header without undefining USE_XFT. CDE
itself cannot make use of Freetype.
The second switches the default backdrop from SkyLight to KnitLight, resolving
ticket 100.
Also, I w
Hello,
I would like to gather feedback from everyone on the list on whether we should
switch the default font (a bitmap rendering of Lucida) to a manually adjusted
screen font designed to maximize legibility.

Hello,
This patch allows for parallel ‘make World’ with imake.
If we are interested in cross-compilation support, I could work on that as well.
Kind regards,
