Review text

``Programming with Motif is aimed at the experienced C programming who is an user of the X Window system. In particular, it is aimed at the programmer who wishes enter the world of X programming through Motif rather at the level of Xlib or Xt. The author provides a clear discussion of widgets from the consumer's point of view (Chapter 4) and then provides a well-documented tour of the important Motif widgets in Chapters 5-10. The code examples are illuminating and of sufficient depth. For example, towards the end of the widget tour the author provides code for an X text editor. In the later chapters, the author treats lists (XmList and the associated widgets), advanced resource topics and interclient communication. This book is well-written and fills an important niche.
