Xm.h is missing #89

Closed JamesOlvertone closed 1 year ago

JamesOlvertone commented 2 years ago

Add some description in Readme which packages you need for compilation.

If someone gets the error

include <Xm/Xm.h> not found.

You need the add the .deb-package libmotif-dev for compilation under Ubuntu (or any other linux).

Theres no configure script that gives you hints whats missing, so add some notes whats needed.

Thank you.

the Readme section BUILDING XNEDIT: https://github.com/unixwork/xnedit#building-xnedit report Motif 2.0 or above as a prerequisite. Every distro (deb, rpm, pacman, ...) has that in a different package name, so you have to guess the exact name from a search
