\begindata{text,3085896}

\template{messages}
    We've been running X.V11R5 OK here now for a couple of months, with no 
problems, I've built Andrew version 5.0.0 (As on the R5 contrib tape) for Sun 
SparcStations (with the posted fixes to get Andrew to build). There's a 
problem though. Basically every Andrew application will core dump when started 
under OpenWindows version 3. I wonder if anyone else has had the same problem. 
When an application is started, It gets as far as drawing most of the window, 
including the outside elements of the scroller `widget', but fails to create 
the scrollbar itself, then it coredumps. I've tried altering the scrollbar 
style using the preference \bold{ScrollStyle }but that doesn't help.


   It may be something to do with the way I built X11 since we have a variety 
of OS releases, I built most of it under SunOS 4.0.3. OpenWindows 3 needs 
SunOS 4.1.1 or later to run and I was wondering if that is the cause. 
Everything else seems to work OK with OpenWindows, and I have no trouble 
running Andrew Apps under 4.1.1 and X11R5 (This message is being posted on a 
Sparc running 4.1.2). This release of Andrew also works OK with OpenWindows 2. 
I've re-built the fonts for OpenWindows so that's not the problem either.


   I'd like a definite answer about whether a re-build is needed though `cos 
building Andrew is not a trivial job (especially if you've archived away the 
source due to lack of disk space). Below is a traceback using gdb. Any help at 
all would be gratefully received.

	This may be related, it might not be (esp. since the dump
didn't happen inside of XDrawLines()), but shouldn't that magic number
5 inside (SRCDIR/atk/basics/x/xgraphic.c)xgraphic__DrawTrapezoids() be
4? And from a purely aesthetic point of view, the thought of a
malloc/free every single time an atomic graphic is drawn really bugs
me.

It looks as if Bill  has reported the same problem as me, only a lot earlier. 
It's just that due to a backlog of stuff in a downstream site I didn't get the

Subject: strange errors when sending e-mail...

\begindata{text,18480316}

Last week i did the upgrade  to \typewriter{Ultrix V4.2A} (hey, i've got a 
X11R4 server now...) on my \typewriter{DECstation 5000/200PX}. Since then i 
get strange errors when sending mails:


\excerptedcaption{Excerpts from mail: 31-Jan-92 BUG -- y ... Juergen 
Henke@qt.IPA.FhG (15586)}


\quotation{The primary error reported was:

Error number 0

}
\quotation{The secondary explanatory text was:

}\quotation{	Error: Unknown operating system error (in dropoff in

}

I've switched on debug mode for my sendmail - \bold{all works fine} - but 
messages insists there was an error. Any quick help ? It's very annoying to 
get bug reports, especially if you are the "postmonster", ehh, sorry 
"postmaster"...


Thanks in advance

I've been having problems with modifying the preferences from within 
\bold{messages} (using the "Set Options" facility).


Whenever an attempt is made by the program to modify the ".preferences" file, 
it goes through random variations of:

\description{\leftindent{\symbola{7}	No error reported, no change in the 
".preferences" file

\symbola{7}	Error reported of "Not a directory"

\symbola{7}	Other bogus errors.

\symbola{7}	A new "preferences" file is created ignoring the ".preferences"

\symbola{7}	The "global.prf" file is almost changed (when the user can write 
to the relevant dir). I say `almost' because it manages to read in the file 
and modify it accordingly, but writes out the new file under a garbage name 
such as global.prf\\003\\021x.

}}
I've poked around in the code to see if I can see what is going on but nothing 
leaps out and makes faces at me.  No problems occur if the user has the 
environment variable "PROFILES" set to a reasonable pathname which it can use, 
so it suggests that its going wrong somewhere in the routine which locates the 
preferences file to use.  Other than that I don't know why it's happening, but 
it sure is annoying.

Hi,

I'm trying to create a Postscript output file from an object created with
'org' using 'ezprint' as shown in the following script:

ezprint -t $FILENAME | eqn -Tpsc | ditroff -Tpsc | psdit > $OUTFILE


I get the following error message:

Malloc arena corruption discovered   at - fr

Anyone out there have an idea why this is happening and perhaps
a patch?

TIA.

Here is the patch (by Dale MacDonald) that we have applied to 
\typewriter{atk/basics/x/xgraphic.c} to allow use with \bold{OW 3.0}.  This 
also handles screens with multiple visuals better, and fixes the long-standing 
dangling NULL \typewriter{lastFillTile} bug in xgraphic.c.  (I've added a 
little ATK formatting to this message to keep the lines from being wrapped by 
sendmessage!  Which I don't guess will help you folks reading it as 
netnews...)

Overall, good idea.

Bad reason.  Emacs is available too -- why support EZ?  The fact that calc is 
an ATK inset is an important feature not provided by xcalc.

Subject: Reading netnews with messages

\begindata{text,2421216}
\textdsversion{12}
\template{messages}
I just tried to set up a link into the usenet news hierarchy of articles, by 
simply creating a top level mail folder containing an `.amsalien' file and a 
symlink into the news tree at relevant points. 

e.g.

\example{$local$/.MESSAGES/.amsalien

$local$/.MESSAGES/usenet/

$local$/.MESSAGES/usenet/comp -> /news/articles/comp

}
cui rebuild can discover the complete tree of mail folders, but attempting to 
access any of them gives "folder does not exist" and similar errors. I would 
guess this is because of the `.amsalien' file not doing it's thang properly 
and the mail interface attempting to find `MsgDir' files littered about.


Has anyone gotten messages to work at reading random hierarchies which should 
be considered read-only?  Or is the only way to do this to maintain a seperate 
tree for andrew?

Within the captions window of messages, it helpfully indicates how well it 
authenticated the source address of any piece of mail:


\quotation{\section{Message authentication and message captions

}\leftindent{
The Andrew Message System tries to establish who sent which messages in order 
to protect Andrew users from forged mail.  This process is called message 
authentication.  There are three possible levels of authentication, each of 
which is reflected in the message caption that accompanies the message.

}}\flushright{-ams help page

}
Well, at our site we have no system of reliable delivery mechanism.  With 
netmail, it shows the email address as normal.  However local mail either gets 
delivered as:

\example{From: Nick Williams <njw>

}or very rarely:

\example{From: Nick Williams <njw@cs.city.ac.uk>

}
As more of the local users here start using messages, I'm getting more 
complaints on the way messages displays these captions.  messages either 
displays "Nick Williams@???" or "Nick Williams@cs.city.ac.uk" respectively. 
 What I'd like is for the CheckAuthUID calls and related functions to ignore 
the fact that we haven't a reliable delivery agent - we know this - and to 
assume it is local and authenticated.  This would give us the result of local 
mail from me being addressed as from "Nick Williams".


Any clues on how to do this simply without breaking anything? Anyone else done 
this?

Subject: Color in Andrew
Cc: kedem@aix1.uottawa.CA


Hello,

I have been using Andrew for some time and have been trying ADEW and
multimedia. 

Up until now, I haven't experimented with color, though. 

My question is: To what extent does Andrew support color ?

1. Can I create multi-color buttons and icons ?
2. Can I create multi-colored text, the same way different fonts are
selected ?
3. Are there plans to make FAD and ZIP support color ?

Thank you in advance

Yes.  In a separate window bring up the arbcon by visiting

\quotation{1. Can I create multi-color buttons and icons ?

Well, you can create just about anything, but there is no notion of a colored 
pixmap in Andrew, and no obvious way to make one.  You can of course make 
non-pixmap multi-colored objects (things that are drawn on with graphics 
primitives, rather than painted with a pixmap).


\quotation{2. Can I create multi-colored text, the same way different fonts 
are

}\quotation{selected ?

}
Yep.


\quotation{3. Are there plans to make FAD and ZIP support color ?

ZIP already does.  FAD should probably be moved to the "unsupported" 
directory...

What's the right way to enable color printing?  I notice that 
\italic{atk/text/txttroff.c} has #ifdefs for \typewriter{COLORPRINTINGWORKS}, 
but I don't see where to set it in \italic{config/site.h}.

We have a couple of users here who run Andrew under OpenWindows. 
Recently, they upgraded from OW 2.1 to OW 3.0.  At this point, Andrew
(the R5 release) ceases to be able to work -- windows get opened, but
are closed almost immediately with a core dump.

Does anyone have any experience with Andrew under OW 3.0?  I'm not an
OpenWindows user myself, and I'm not really even sure where to begin
figuring this one out... -- Nathaniel

Can anyone recommend an O-O development environment to use for
porting an ATK developed multi-media application to Motif?  (someone 
a while ago mentioned XView -- could someone please send me a pointer
to that as well... thanks!) Also, recommendations for graphical interface 
editors are welcome.  

Thanks in advance; please respond via email (I don't get the newsgroup).

\begindata{text,2298808}

This patch fixes a bug in \bold{glist}.  When you push an object onto a list, 
the "tail" pointer of the glist is \italic{not} maintained, though other 
methods (such as Insert) \italic{rely} on it being maintained.  This causes a 
core dump on the Sun SPARC.  The patch adds the necessary code to 
glist__Push().

Subject: messages folders catch strange communicable disease!

Has anyone else seen the following problem with messages?

I have a lot of folders into which incoming mail is placed automatically
by a flames program.  Sometimes a folder will get 'sick'.  When new mail
is placed into it, 'messages' knows about it, but it will always
position me at the first message in the folder, even though all the
previous (hundreds) of messages have been read.  Messages knows this
too, because it shows check marks, rather than the little unopened
envelope before each message.

Sometimes a 'cui reconstruct' command seems to fix a folder for a while,
sometimes it has no effect.   This disease seems to spread, as more of 
my folders are catching it.  Help!

Thanks,

After one and a half day I finished building andrew more or less. Unfortunately
there remain still 2 errors to fix:  

  1)  mkfontdir doesnt seem to like the generated .pcf font-files
  2)  the creation of the helpindex fails, because the following line in the
      Makefile demands a pgm or script with a non-existant path on my local
      machine:
      /afs/andrew.cmu.edu/usr0/hm99/index/installandyindex."sun4_41" $(DESTDIR
      (I couldnt find something like installandyindex... or similar among the
      distributed and generated files)

The first error seems not to affect the possibility of starting applications, 
while the second prevents me - as a novice - using andrew.

When browsing through this newsgroup I read about patches which could
help completing the installation.
I would appreciate if someone could send me these patches or give me some other
hints to succeed (email: ziegler@gmdzi.gmd.de).

I built andrew on a sun4 with os 4.1.1.

Thanks in advace,  Wolfgang Ziegler

I am having trouble with the messages tool. It is not correctly parsing
incoming mail. Many messages are smashed together into one large
mail message. There is a pattern:  all the messages that are not treated
seperately have a From line similar to:

From andrew.cmu.edu!@po2.andrew.cmu.edu:atkbb+Bad-Addresses Sat Feb  8 04:10:19 1992
Return-Path: <andrew.cmu.edu!@po2.andrew.cmu.edu:atkbb+Bad-Addresses>

This seems to be confusing messages.

SunOS 4.1.1

Help please!

Perhaps a better question would be why is AMS putting out this
(deprecated) form of address in the first place?  It doesn't add any
information not already present in the Received: headers, and Host
Requirements says that hosts SHOULD NOT (I think that's their wording)
emit source-routed addresses, and other hosts MAY completely ignore
source-routing.

Yes, ``cui reconstruct'' will fix the folder, until you add a new message to 
it.


The solution is to delete the .MS_MsgDir file in the folder, ``touch'' it to 
create a zero-length version, and then do ``cui reconstruct''.  There's a 
field of this file (what's read to LastMsgDate) that is not initialized when a 
new folder is created, so it could contain out-of-range garbage.  Further, 
``cui reconstruct'' intentionally doesn't fix this field, so if it's garbage 
once, it stays garbage.  That's why you have to delete (or rename) the 
.MS_MsgDir file.  You have to create a zero-length .MS_MsgDir file so that 
some low-level routine will think that the thing you're trying to reconstruct 
really should be an AMS folder.


Nathaniel noticed the problem and sent a fix to the ATK consortium.  I don't 
know if anything has happened to that fix, but Nathaniel noticed it after 
X.V11R5 had been released.

It's the sendmail in use at andrew.cmu.edu that's giving a source-route for a 
MAIL FROM: address, not AMS or AMDS or anything else.  It's a site issue, not 
an Andrew or AMS issue.


Now, as a site issue: The outermost host is the name of the post office 
machine that is relaying the mail.  For a while, at least at CMU, there were 
mail systems that would reject incoming mail unless the outermost host in the 
MAIL FROM: line were the same machine as was on the other side of the SMTP 
connection.  Since this no longer seems to be the case, the folks who now run 
the andrew.cmu.edu mail system are testing a version of sendmail that doesn't 
add the PO machine name to the MAIL FROM: line.


But then again, it's not really wrong to use this source-route information, 
even if it does prove to be a little confusing to some slightly-confused mail 
gateways.

\quotation{Nathaniel noticed the problem and sent a fix to the ATK consortium. 
 I don't know if anything has happened to that fix, but Nathaniel noticed it 
after X.V11R5 had been released.

}
This bug will go away with the next (CDROM) release.

Here is the message Nathaniel sent on the matter:


Thanks to an astute observation by Steve Rohall, I've finally pinned down the 
elusive "dates in the future" bug where some bboards -- typically netnews, in 
our case -- end up with dates in the future.  It turns out that it only 
happens when a new bboard is automatically created as a subdirectory of an old 
one, which is nearly always done by a FLAMES program.


Bob, I'm sorry to say that the bug appears to have been introduced when you 
added the LastMsgDate ("high water mark") code.  The crucial bug is in 
ams/libs/ms/rawdb.c, in CreateNewMSDirectory.  There, you fail to initialize 
the LastMsgDate value.  If it happens to be all zeroes, as it often does, all 
is well, but this is not always the case.  The simple fix is to add the 
following line right after line 151 in the R5 distribution (which says 
"\typewriter{(*NewDir)->NumIDs = 0;}"):


\example{    strcpy((*NewDir)->LastMsgDate, "000000");

}
Now, this should fix the bug -- I can't really test it, since I couldn't 
reproduce it in the first place, but this seems VERY likely to be the bug. 
 But still, I found myself wondering, why didn't ALL THAT CODE that I wrote 
years ago suffice to catch and automatically fix these way-in-the-future 
dates?  By now thoroughly suspicious about the LastMsgDate hack, I probed 
further, and found the place in ams/libs/ms/msdir.c where, on line 134, I 
found the following extremely incriminating coment:

\example{
/* I'm not going to bother with the paramcheck that the other case (below) 
does --bobg */

}
Guess what, Bob?  You should have.  It would have protected you against the 
previous bug!  Anyway, I also recommend REPLACING that line, line 134, with 
the following code that you decided not to bother with:


\example{\smaller{\smaller{if (mTime > (unsigned long) 0xc0000000 || mTime > 
((unsigned long) time(0) + 7 * 24 * 60 * 60)) \{

   sprintf(ErrBuf, "Dates in folder %s, %d=%s, are bogus; folder needs 
reconstruction.", ap_Shorten(Dir->UNIXDir), mTime, NiceTime(mTime));

    NonfatalBizarreError(ErrBuf);

}}\}

}
I believe that the combination of these two patches will completely and 
permanently eliminate the "dates in the future" bug.  


Don't feel bad, Bob -- you wouldn't BELIEVE how many times I fixed this bug 
while I was at CMU, and then reintroduced it later...  But you guys might want 
to try to slip this relatively minor fix into the CD release of Andrew.    --

the programm caused core dumped seems to be "doindex" which is a program

Can anyone tell me what is wrong?   
Thanks a for any help in advance.

Has anyone else seen the following problem with messages?

I have a lot of folders into which incoming mail is placed automatically
by a flames program.  Sometimes a folder will get 'sick'.  When new mail
is placed into it, 'messages' knows about it, but it will always
position me at the first message in the folder, even though all the
previous (hundreds) of messages have been read.  Messages knows this
too, because it shows check marks, rather than the little unopened
envelope before each message.

Sometimes a 'cui reconstruct' command seems to fix a folder for a while,
sometimes it has no effect.   This disease seems to spread, as more of 
my folders are catching it.  Help!

Thanks,

First, of course,  is to point out that Andrew has adopted much of the Motif 
look and feel.  


But I take your note to mean you want to reimplement an application using the 
Motif library and want to avoid the pure C environment of Motif.


There are three major contenders for object oriented programming in Unix: C++, 
Modula-3, and Objective C.  Many sites are adopting C++, despite the 
advantages of Modula-3.  Objective C has not been gaining ground despite its 
use on Next systems.  I'm not aware of Motif libraries for any of these, but I 
suspect they exist.  


Among the advantages of Modula-3 is automatic storage management (via garbage 
collection), a feature capable of saving up to 25% of programmer time on 
sizeable O-O projects.


At this writing a group (other than the Consortium) is building a layer on top 
of ATK so ATK objects can be accessed from Modula-3.  Thus new code could be 
written in Modula-3 while utilizing the ATK core written in C.  The ATK 
Consortium hopes to be able to make this code available later this year. 
 (Consortium members will get it earlier than non-members.)

We have implemented an automount map called /tilde.  While "cleaning" up
my preferences to accomodate R5 I changed my mspath to
/tilde/macdonal/.MESSAGES from ~/.MESSAGES.  Now, we haven't finished
cleaning up our passwd database so for me ~ == /net/ra/ra/macdonal
rather than /tilde/macdonal.  

The next time I fired up messages it proceded to write a new .AMS.prof
using /tilde/macdonal/.MESSAGES/mail for mail.  Unfortunately,
MS_FindMailbox expands ~/Mailbox, CUI_CheckMailboxes wants
.MESSAGES/mail and Mailbox to be in the same directory, and as far as
strncmp() is concerned /net/ra/ra/macdonal != /tilde/macdonal.

So, if you run into users who complain "Read Mail doesn't do anything!" 
Take a look at where their .AMS.prof thinks mail is vs. where ~/Mailbox
is.

CUI_CheckMailboxes will dutifully complain if MS_FindMailbox loses, but
won't for this path conflict.  Any ideas why not? 

Dale.

I am still in the process of installing ATK version 5.0.0
But I got to try out some of the binaries. The problem is
I have a mono Sun monitor. The ATK ends up looking funny
and unreabable where is tries to use color and the 3D
shapes. But it looks great on a color monitor which 
unfortunately is not what I going to display it on. Any
suggestions ?

I am compiling it on Sparcstation 1 with SunOS 4.1.1

thanks

Here at MIT we compile Andrew for multiple hardware platforms.
I work pretty hard to keep things tuned so when we add a new hardware platform
we don' consume space with redundant copies of doc files, etc.
When the RS/6000 port came on-line, I hacked makedo.csh so that the
.do files would be about the same size as those on the other platforms.
Before my change, the .do files contained all the symbols, and were
the traditional size of the .dog files.

Well look at these numbers reported by du:

rt/dlib/atk: 7299
rt/bin: 5676
vax/dlib/atk: 4914
vax/bin: 3714
rsaix/dlib/atk: 8961
rsaix/bin: 5828
sparcsun/dlib/atk: 26562
sparcsun/bin: 4207

All of these numbers make sense except for the sparcsun/dlib/atk size.
(The RISC binaries are a little bigger, except where shared libraries
render them smaller again.)

My first idea was to, as with the RS/6000, strip the .do files.
Alas, Sun strip is mondo stupid copared to AIX strip which has a
PHD in symbol tables from Austin Texas.

AIX strip is smart enough to reduce the symbol table size without destroying
the data required to perform run-time loading.

Sun stripped .do files provide me with the helpful Core Dump of EZ when
run-time loaded.

One possibility is for me to compile the Sun platform without -g.
I am loathe to do this.  I generally keep around the .dog files and
use them for debugging.  I distribut the .do files to campus, and the
pedagogically correct way to do this all is for there to be separate
.dog files.

Does anybody know how to tell SunOS to reduce the size of the symbol
table without throwing out the baby with the bathwater?

Does anyone know what I would have to do to implement the Table of
Contents (active) into the Andrew help ?

Any HELP will be very appreciated.

Well I have been trying to make the scroll bars look
right on the monochrome monitor. There seem to be so
many preferences related to scrollbar and I just cannot
seem to get the right combination of black & white &
foreground and background!

Will please anybody tell me what are ALL the various
components of the scrollbars and which options affect
which parts. I have looked at the scroll.help file. It
did not help.

There is matte, there is button, there is elevator,
there is dot, the bar itself, scroll etc..etc...And
each of them have shadow, foreground,background...
I tried MimicOld option that gave variable results.
Everytime I start the app the bars look different..Boy!

I need somebody to exactly describe to me what is what
and which options should I set to make it look like the
most simple scrollbar (a white slider on a grey bar,
like xterms under twm)

And for ITC people. It would be nice if you include a
explanatory diagram of scrollbar in your scroll.help
file..

I have been struggling with this problem so long that
it is getting to me..

If I do not get help I have to give up on ATK I guess.

thanks

Hello,

I tried using the eroff package release 3.0.7A on SCO 3.2.2.

I used : troff -Tps file | eps - | lp

I didn't get any error messages, but the resulting file was empty of text.

My question:

1. Any more clues on where to look for the bug ?

2. Since I don't intend to buy another package, can I use groff instead ?

Thank you

I'd suggest focusing on a good way to do it for just GROFF and DWB
ditroff, myself, rather than try to support it for arbitary broken
troffs.

sorry, i write again to you, because reply doesn't work to Gary

hello Gary

thanks for your reply.
the operating system is Ultrix 4.1a, and my machine is a 5000/200
Decstation, therefore i changed the .../andrew/config/platform.tmpl

> #if (defined(mips) && defined(ultrix))
> #include <pmax_41/system.mcr>
> #define MacroIncludeFile pmax_41/system.mcr
> #endif /* mips && ultrix */

and therefore the Variable  sys_pmax_ul4 is not defined but sys_pmax_41.

Please help me with more Information!
Was it an error to change platform.tmp ?

thanks in advance

I'm having a few problems with fonts and scrollbars under Andrew rel.
5.0.   I've just put up release 5.0 under Openwindows 3.0.  I had Andrew
PL10 running before under Openwindows 3.0, so I'm just fighting the
differences between PL10 and 5.0 (and maybe X11R4 to X11R5 changes).

First, my fonts are a bit screwed up.  I have /usr/andrew/xnwsfnts in my
fontpath, so my cursors are right,  but my Menus and Menubars have a
tiny fixed width font in them and changing  the requisite font
preferences doesn't help.  Also, the variable width fonts in messages,
help, etc. all have a wide interline spacing that I don't like.

Second, the new scrollbars look fine on my color display, but none too
good on my monocrome display.  Setting *.MimicOldScrollbar: TRUE doesn't
help.  

I've included a raster picture that shows all of these problems below.
It's the top of this sendmessage window.

Has anyone out there solved these problems already?  

Thanks,

Moving from our old (pl7) ATK to the new 5.0.0 release, we have more
than once been fouled up by messages.  It gets into a state where
neither the new or old messages can file new messages from the ~/Mailbox
file into ~/.MESSAGES/mail (or, indeed, ~/.MESSAGES/<anything>).  It
seems to be caused by having an instance of the old pl7 messages running
at the same time as you start the new 5.0.0 messages.  A fix (which I
don't understand) seems to be to use cui to "rebuild ~/.MESSAGES".

Does anyone have any notion of what's going on here, and how we could avoid it?

I usually print ez documents (without any raster, etc..) by using
the following command.

ezprint -t filename|troff -Tpsc -t|lpr -t -

and it works..

Now I am trying to do printing from the menus of ez, help, etc..

So I put the following lines in my ~/.preferences file:

formatcommand: ezprint -t /tmp/%s.n|troff -Tpsc -t|
printcommand: lpr -t -

The output has the desired bodyfont (which I specified to be
andy10). But the troff commands do not seem to get processed.
They come out printed along with the rest of the text !!!

any suggestion ?

thanks

Please excuse me if this has been covered before. I'm building Andrew for the
first time and just subscribed to this group. As I understand it, I'm allowed
one stupid question due to ignorance, right? :-)

I'm having a problem building 5.0.0 on a Sun 4 running 4.1.1 SunOS. Doindex
always exits with the message "...dlopen: stub interception failed". For
example while doing a "make dependInstall" in overhead/class/testing. I get

Any ideas????? I'm poking around here sort of lost. I'm not really familiar
with Andrew at all to begin with and I'm not quite sure exactly how this
dynamic linking stuff is supposed to work either.

Oh, bu the way, the core is over 8MB which strikes me as kinda wierd for a
small littel progream that doesn't malloc anything that looks liike ti would
be huge.

Any help or advice would be greatly appreciated!!!!!!

Thanks!!!!!!

   Is there some one who explain me about ATK consortium in detail ?
   I would like to know :

 1) What is ATK consortium?
 2) What is purpose?
 3) WHo is member, currently?
 4) Who to Join it?
 5) Is there plan to develop Audio Insets ? If yes who is going to do it?
 6) Is there plan to develop Video Insets ? If yes who is going to do it?
 7) Is there plan to develop Gray-Scale Image Insets ? 
       If yes who is going to do it.

   I'm sorry for many questions.

I apologize for not responding to any of your posts for so long.
Basically, we somehow lost our feed (or something -- things weren't
being forwarded into my Mailbox like usual) and I just thought, "Hey,
everything must be OK.  No news, is good news."  So, I was busy working
away on the CD-ROM distribution without a clue.  How naive I can

Make *VERY* sure that *NONE* of the commands that link *ANY* programs
that use the "-ldl" library have "-L/lib" or any other weird "-L"
options; if they do, the system may find "libdl.so.1.0" in "/lib" rather
than in "/usr/lib", and if it does, it gets *VERY* confused.  (Don't ask
why.  Trust me.  You *DON'T* want to know how that stuff works, or why
it *ONLY* works if it finds "libdl.so.1.0" in "/usr/lib".  Really.)

Dynamically linked programs in SunOS 4.x produce very large core files,
although the files have a hole in them so they don't take up as much
disk space as they'd appear to (unless you copy them, in which case the
hole gets filled in).

Yes.  I take responsibility for this project.  You will be able to have
color, and greyscale, images in your ATK documents (or anywhere else
insets are allowed) in the future.  A prototype implementation exists
but is not yet ready for prime time.

Fred Hansen, the Consortium director, will answer your other questions.

Subject: problems with scrollbar appearence on monochrome displays (with rel. 5)

I've solved the problem of the new Motif scrollbars appearing strangely
on my monochrome display.  Several people suggested that  the problem
might be caused by Foreground/Background color settings on the
monochrome display, but this wasn't the case.  I fixed the problem by
setting "Scrollstyle: 3" explicitly.   The documentation states that
MimicOldScrollbar is true by default for monochrome screens.  It also
states that when this is true that Scrollstyle defaults to 3.  I've
found the latter statement to be untrue.  Even with MimicOldScrollbar
set to TRUE explicitly, my scrollbars are screwed up unless I also set
Scrollstyle to 3.   Can someone at ITC fix this or the documentation?

PS:  

The new scrollbars look great on a color screen, but ScrollStyle: 3     
  looks pretty plain.  It would be nice if there was something prettier
for monochrome displays.

Has anyone else noticed that the new Motify 3D appearance of various

insets (button, slider, four-way, on/off switch, etc.) don't look at

all well on monochrome displays?  It's hard to tell that a button is

a button.  Here's a raster of a four-way, for instance:

The upper-left button is the one depressed here.  Not too many applications 
use four-way's, but there are plenty with pop-up windows

with confirm or yes/no buttons in them.   These look about the same

way.  An easy way to demonstrate this is to invoke 'arb' and select "Init 
Value Window" from the Arbcon menu card.


Or is it just me?

This is the bug that Bill Janssen has been working on fixing.  He's testing a

Subject: new xgraphic.c patch for everyone
Cc: Bill Schell <bill@allegra.att.com>

Here's a new version of our patch of a couple of weeks ago to 
atk/basics/x/xgraphic.\{c,ch\}.  It upgrades the original 5.0.0 release 
version of xgraphic.c to the version we are using here at PARC.  It seems to 
have fixed all of our scrollbar and dialog box problems, as well.  It also 
integrates the ITC fixes to the earlier patch.


The major thing it does is to finish the job of supporting named colors on B&W 
displays as dithered gray patterns.  The 5.0.0 release code supported this for 
certain types of operations, such as draw and drawtext, so that a color such 
as "red", for instance, would be drawn on a monochrome display as a dithered 
gray pattern.  Unfortunately, the fill operations were never converted over to 
this paradigm, so that filling an area with "red" would typically result in a 
solid black (or white, for some other colors) pattern being drawn on the 
monochrome display.  This caused havoc with filled things, such as scrollbars, 
buttons, and dialog boxes.


This code has not been satisfactorily tested with older style background 
setting, that uses the RGB triplet rather than a color name.  However, we have 
not noticed any problems with any of the stock ATK applications, on MIT X11R4 
& R5, or on Sun OpenWindows v2 or v3, color or grayscale or monochrome.


Bill


(Note there are two patch files here, one for xgraphic.ch, and the next for 
xgraphic.c.  To apply the patches, cd to the atk/basics/x directory, and use 
patch with the -p option:


\example{patch -p <xgraphic.ch-patch

patch -p <xgraphic.c-patch

})

Yes.  I take responsibility for this project.  You will be able to have
color, and greyscale, images in your ATK documents (or anywhere else
insets are allowed) in the future.  A prototype implementation exists
but is not yet ready for prime time.

Fred Hansen, the Consortium director, will answer your other questions.

Subject: replying to mail

Could someone please tell me how to insert text into a reply to a
message after excerpting  the body of the message, without it appearing
with the same italicized font ? This seems to work ok if there is a
blank line between paragraphs, but if you want to make a comment in the
middle of a paragraph and hit return a couple of times, the text that
you then insert is always italicized. This isn't too well described.
Does anyone know what I'm on about and have a solution please ? This has
been irritating me for a while !

Not anymore.  You have led me to one of the more interesting bugs of
my career, and a fix for it is now checked into our source tree.
Hopefully, before long you will see a release of the fixed software.

The symptom was that certain Messages preferences, including AMSHome,
PersonalMailCollectionCommand, and others, were not being found if
they appeared as "messages.AMSHome" in the preferences file.  (They
worked fine in the form "*.AMSHome".)  The fix involves four lines in
two files in andrew/atkams/messages/lib -- amsn.c and msgsa.c.  Here
are the context diffs:

Here's a discussion of the bug, if you're interested:

	The preferences-reading code is in libutil.a, in a function
called "getprofile" (which calls "GetConfig").  A global character
buffer called ProgramName is exported by libutil, but most people
don't know that.
	The environ ATK class is linked with libutil and has
procedures for setting and getting the program name, corresponding
directly to the ProgramName buffer in libutil.  ATK applications use
the environ_GetProfile* interface to the getprofile functions in
libutil.  So far, so good.
	The amsn class in Messages is also linked with libutil, as
well as with libcui and libmssrv.  Amsn calls CUI_Initialize, which
calls MS_Initialize, which is in libmssrv, which calls getprofile,
which is in libutil, and which requires the ProgramName buffer.  So
when amsn is linked, the .do file includes its own copy of the
ProgramName buffer.
	When Messages is running, (at least) two of the classes that
are loaded -- environ and amsn -- have their own copies of the
ProgramName buffer.  Messages calls im_SetProgramName, which calls
environ_SetProgramName, which fills in environ's copy of ProgramName;
and most of the preferences read during Messages' execution are read
via the environ_GetProfile* interface.  However, some preferences are
read during startup by the code in libmssrv, which knows about amsn's
(uninitialized) copy of ProgramName and not about environ's copy.  So
any preferences read by non-ATK code -- namely libmssrv (and others)
-- will have a bogus value for ProgramName, and won't find
"messages.foo".
	The workaround is simply to ensure that amsn's copy of
ProgramName is initialized with the appropriate value, just as
environ's copy is.

If you want to put it in the middle of a paragraph that does NOT have
line breaks. you'll have to explicitly choose "plainer" on the affected
text.  If you're at the beginning of a line which is preceded by a hard
line break. the right thing should happen.

Right now, Messages wraps an "excerpt" style around each LINE of
excerpted text, which produces the behavior you see.  Using the style
mechanism, the only way I could imagine to fix this would be to put a
separate style around each CHARACTER, which would be incredibly wasteful
(not to mention producing an exceedingly ugly datastream, which will
matter more in Messages 8.X, where the datastream will be read by lots
of non-Andrew software and occasionally even by human beings).

An alternate approach would be to rebind all the text-insertion keys to
do something different if they're in the middle of an excerpt.  This
could be done, but it would be a lot of work....  For now, I suggest
using "plainest" to get your text out of the excerpt style.  -- Nathaniel

Well I have been trying to make the scroll bars look
right on the monochrome monitor. There seem to be so
many preferences related to scrollbar and I just cannot
seem to get the right combination of black & white &
foreground and background!

Will please anybody tell me what are ALL the various
components of the scrollbars and which options affect
which parts. I have looked at the scroll.help file. It
did not help.

There is matte, there is button, there is elevator,
there is dot, the bar itself, scroll etc..etc...And
each of them have shadow, foreground,background...
I tried MimicOld option that gave variable results.
Everytime I start the app the bars look different..Boy!

I need somebody to exactly describe to me what is what
and which options should I set to make it look like the
most simple scrollbar (a white slider on a grey bar,
like xterms under twm)

And for ITC people. It would be nice if you include a
explanatory diagram of scrollbar in your scroll.help
file..

I have been struggling with this problem so long that
it is getting to me..

If I do not get help I have to give up on ATK I guess.

thanks
d
