Wafe

   <programming> (From Widget Athena front end) A package by
   Gustaf Neumann <[email protected]> implementing a
   symbolic interface to the {Athena} {widgets} and
   {OSF}/{Motif}.  A typical Wafe {application} consists of two
   parts: a front-end (Wafe) and an application program which
   runs as a separate process.  The distribution contains sample
   application programs in {Perl}, {GAWK}, {Prolog}, {TCL}, {C},
   and {Ada} talking to the same Wafe binary.

   The current Wafe version is 1.0.15. It supports Athena as
   distributed with {X} releases 4-6 and Motif versions 1.1, 1.2,
   and 2.0 but new distribution are only tested against {X}
   releases 5 and 6, and Motif versions 1.2.4 and 2.0.
