Wafe (From Widget Athena front end) A package by Gustaf Neumann 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.
