About motifdeveloper.com
Motifdeveloper.com is the completely updated Motif on
the World Wide Web, MW3. This site provides Motif
programmers with an invaluable resource to help them in
creating professional user interfaces with Motif, the world's
most popular graphical toolkit for the X Window System.
While some new toolkits have been created for the X Window
System in recent times, the fact remains that Motif is
currently the most widely-used graphical toolkit on UNIX
systems. It is shipped with every Sun, Hewlett-Packard, SGI,
and IBM AIX workstation. That's about a million new
Motif-based desktops every year. Of course, Windows desktops
far outnumber this, but Windows isn't UNIX. So Motif
dominates the UNIX graphical desktop. Motif's onward progress
was assured by the release by The Open Group of Open
Source versions of Motif 2.1.30 for use on Linux and FreeBSD.
Regular visits to motifdeveloper.com will keep you informed
about the latest developments in Motif and will help you keep
your skills honed. Migration and cross-platform issues will
also be addressed, covering Windows and Java, with advice on
how to build web-aware applications.
So look around this site, check out the web resources that
we've gathered, use motifdeveloper.com as your portal to all
that you need to know to effectively build and deploy Motif
applications.
Hints and tips by Antony Fountain, the author of the latest
edition of the Motif Reference Manual, Volume 6B in the
O'Reilly X Window System Guides series, will appear regularly
and you can "Ask Antony" specific questions which he will respond to
publicly on motifdeveloper.com. Antony is a Principal
Software Engineer with IST Limited and is the
technical lead involved in the development of X-Designer,
IST's Motif GUI builder.
