Hi Steven (and all):

Unfortunately, I could not get this to compile.  It seemed to go 
through configure OK, but after I issued "make" this occurred:

Making all in lui5
source='browser.c' object='browser.o' libtool=no \
depfile='.deps/browser.Po' tmpdepfile='.deps/browser.TPo' \
depmode=none /bin/sh ../depcomp \
cc -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -I. -I. -I.. -I../src     -O3 -fomit-frame-pointer 
-mcpu=powerpc  -I/usr/X11R6/include -c `test -f browser.c || echo 
'./'`browser.c
../depcomp: can't open input file: ../depcomp
make[2]: *** [browser.o] Error 1
make[1]: *** [all-recursive] Error 1
make: *** [all] Error 2

Somewhere else (perhaps on Source Forge), I saw something where you 
said we need the latest version of autoconf installed first.  I 
haven't been able to get the latest version of that installed either; 
configure yields a passel of sed errors ("invalid command code f").

Mac OS X 10.0.4, gcc from the updated Dev Tools, latest XonX which works fine.

Any insights appreciated!

Cheers,
Rob
