I had trouble using Mosaic compiled for XFree-2.1 (X11R5) with my
recently-upgraded XFree-3.1, even though I copied all the appropriate
shared libs.  Rather than do something simple like figure out why the
key bindings didn't work right, I decided to play with our University
site licensed Motif source and build a new copy from scratch.

One weekend later, I now have a nicely compiled R6 Mosaic-2.4.  And
while I was waiting for the motif libraries to compile, I went and
fixed the whizzing globe bug (I've included a modified HTTCP.c, the guilty
party in this case, should you wish to build your own).

I also found I was able to overcome the "delete doesn't do backspace-delete"
problem by adding the following to my .Xresources file:

 *XmText.translations: #override\n\
        <Key>osfDelete: delete-previous-character()\n\
        <Key>osfBackSpace: delete-next-character()\n

 *XmTextField.translations: #override\n\
         <Key>osfDelete: delete-previous-character()\n\
        <Key>osfBackSpace: delete-next-character()\n


Have fun!

I got several bug reports of forms not working if you change to fonts other
than the default.  This turned out to be a problem with Motif 1.2.0,
so I upgraded to 1.2.4 and recompiled.  It appears to work OK now.
