Source Code

This is the source code for the simple Motif applications shown in Figure 14-1 and Figure 14-2. Launch it with any command line argument to see the text label string in italic font in the label widget.

Resource File

Here is the Resource file for the simple Motif application. One way to use it is to create the file and set the XENVIRONMENT variable with the pathname.

phoenix% setenv XENVIRONMENT /export/home/zelda/resfile

Example.*geometry: 400X100
Example.*orientation: XmHORIZONTAL
Example.*label.labelString: Launch an application
Example.*xclock.labelString: Run xclock
Example.*xterm.labelString: Run xterm
Example.*xmag.labelString: Run xmag
Example.*goodbye.labelString: Quit
Example.*XmPushButton*background: blue
Example.*XmLabel*foreground: white
Example.*XmLabel*foreground: white
