The following notes are contributed from Tix users on various
platforms. I have no access to these platforms and cannot verify that
their settings are correct. Also, the settings may only work with a
specific versions of Tix on a specific version of the O/S.
From: Andrew Fitzhugh (fitz@hplaef.hpl.hp.com) about
Version: Tix 4.0a5
Platform: HPUX 9.05
1. Throw ANSI flag on the compiler (I set PROTO_FLAGS = -Ae)
2. Change the X11 directories to -I/usr/include/X11R5 and -L/usr/lib/X11R5
3. This might affect other systems: the Makefile included -lX11 before
-ltk and -ltcl, so I switched the order. (Obviously a bug, since
there is a comment right above it that told me what to do :-).

The above is a very common problem with Solaris2.4, I am pretty
sure when you are creating your _tixwish_, its picking up the UCB
library, that is you must be having /usr/ucblib/ or whatever in
your LD_LIBRARY_PATH or LD_RUN_PATH, REMOVE it OR make sure that
the standard libraries or before the ucblibs.. Now, its strange
that it shows up, because I don't think the tix fileselect box has
been implemented in "C", so it should not have shown up??
You might have to recompile your tcl/tk libraries with the
offending libraries out of the way..because I use a Solaris2.4
machine and I have no problem at all!!.. Cheers, Mohan
