-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----

I have uploaded version 0.2 of lxb to incoming on sunsite.unc.edu. 

lxb is an X/Motif interactive graphical user interface builder. With 
it you can build a GUI made up of Motif widgets instantiated by 
clicking on icons, move and resize them with the mouse, edit their 
resources, and move about in the widget heirarchy via the arrow keys. 
Once the GUI is built, pressing a button will produce all required C 
source files to build the GUI, and an X resource file and Makefile.

This version of lxb is not completed. Not all Motif widgets are 
included, nor can all resources be edited. 

I am releasing this software now, even though it is incomplete, since 
it will take a great deal of time and work to produce a GUI builder
comparable to one of the commercial ones. Hopefully, with what 
capabilities this software does currently have it will be useful for 
someone. 

I am not releasing the source at this time.

lxb will most likely end up in /pub/Linux/X11/devel. The two files 
associated with lxb are:

	1)	README.lxb
	2)	lxb-0.2.tar.gz

The Web page for lxb is http://www.umn.edu/nlhome/g257/parki005/lxb/lxb.html.
Further information including screen shots can be found there.
