Thank you for your info, and for the web site reference. I interpret those docs as saying that if I write, say a word processor, using these Motif routines then I must give away all of my code as Open Source. In the case of Qt I can purchase a copy and write my own code without having to disclose my source code. But X11 and Xt are simply free. I have not read the license. In general, if a library you use is GPL (or similar) your code will be infected and is OpenSource, but if you use the LGPL license, your code is not OpenSource. -- Jerry Feldman
