Re: [gtk-list] gtk+ on non-linux UNIX

[John Utz <utz serv net>]

*theoretically* it might work :-)

however, the hpux box is probably running X11R5, not X11R6. Or it could
even be running X11R4(or 3!) if it is an early rev of hpux.

x apps are supposed to be pretty platform transparent, but when things use
./configure instead of xmkmf and an Imakefile then it is much harder to
make all of that transparency work.

u might try and find out what version of x is on the hpux box, and if it
isn't X11R6.x then perhaps you could find a precompiled X11R6 binary for
your machine on some hpux archive somewhere....


good luck, sounds like a fun adventure....
