The LessTif Core Team is pleased to announce
      Release 0.93.46
of the LessTif library!

This is an intermediate release:
- work is started to extend LessTif to work with the Xft library
  (see http://fontconfig.org) so we can work with anti-aliased fonts.
- Hopefully this fixes both of the nedit grab issues.
- List hightlight problem fix.
- Fixes for XmText(Field)GetSubstring bugs.
- Fix for a 2.0 build problem.

About LessTif:
LessTif is a "free" (LGPL'd) implementation of the OSF/Motif standard
GUI toolkit for X11. LessTif aims to be source compatible with the Motif
(a product of The OpenGroup) versions 1.2 and 2.1.

Nearly all Motif 1.2 apps compile and work out of the box with LessTif!
We still lack substantial parts of the new 2.1 functionality,
but most 2.x applications can already be built and used (many don't use
the 2.x novelties).

Some run-time problems however may still exist. The LessTif Core team is
interested in hearing about Motif applications which don't work with LessTif.
Bug reports are welcome - patches are even more welcome!

More information, source code, and binaries for several platforms
are available at:
