Re: lesstif confuses app-defaults


Dou you manage to use mwm normally ? Trying to use lesstiff with the
file /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/mwm/system.mwmrc copied in $HOME/.mwmrc doesn't
function. (even it's written in README in the same directory)

It reports :
Warning: Cannot convert string "rom14" to type FontStruct
(font problem, I think)
and menus don't work, I cannot move/resize/close/... windows.
