Before usig, set the environment variable OPENWINHOME to /usr/X386. In csh, use: % setenv OPENWINHOME /usr/X386 in bash or sh: $ OPENWINHOME=/usr/X386; export OPENWINHOME The ftptool, textedit, and props programs are not part of xview3.2. Ftptool is normally distributed as an individual package. Textedit and props come from xview3. The share subdirectory contains setup files for props and is not part of the xview3.2 distribution. A lex'ed version of the file lex.l in the ftptool distribution is included as lex.c because our version of lex doesn't seem to parse it correctly. You should only need to type make to buidl and install the package. If you experience troubles read the xview3.2/README file! Sincerely, Your FreeBSD hackers
