You don't have to wade through a thousand-page book to start developing Motif applications! This book distills all of Motif's complexity into just the concepts, widgets, toolkit and Xlib routines you need to get results. Start by understanding Motif's fundamental concepts, terminology, and client/server architecture. Quickly learn how to build interface widgets, use Motif's basic button and label widget classes, build Motif menu systems, and work with text widgets, dialogs and shell widgets.
