There are two good reasons to study gtk instead. A) Motif is not gpl'ed and thus will eventually go the way of the dinosaurs B) Tcl/Tk is nice, however every time a new version comes out it breaks the existing apps and they have to be recoded. Stupid. Gtk is gpl'ed, rapidly nearing maturity, massively embraced by the linux development community and has the power to be like any interface you want it to be with it's forthcoming theme support.

I am writing a little symbolic logic processor as an intellectual exercise. I would like to create a GUI interface to this. Can anybody tell me what tools and libs I need in order to create X/motif programs?
TIA,
Steve
