Here we collect links to external (online) resources related to
LessTif/Motif. We list tutorials, programming references as well
as tools which are required to build the source distribution.

There are several Motif tutorials available on the net.
We only give a small random selection of them here ...

Open Motif Documentation</a>

The documentation to OpenMotif if taken from this URL
seems to have <EM>reasonable</EM>
<a href="http://www.opengroup.org/openmotif/docs/README">
license terms and conditions</a> different from those
which apply for the source package!
So they're well worth the download (some big PDF files).

about Motif in <A HREF="http://www.motifzone.com/tmd/">The Motif Developer</A>.
Articles currently seem to get added twice a month.
