Hello Chris-
I asuume the problems you were having were with zbrowser; zwgc should
compile with little or no problem. Zbrowser has been broken for a long
time, and it currently isn't one of the clients actively supported/used
here. It does quite a few things the wrong way- it watches all window map
notifications to determine when there are new zephyrgrams (instead of, say,
getting this information directly from zwgc somehow). It also relies on
the window properties being set, which the current zwgc doesn't do.
Bascially, it would be a major project to get working, and most likely isn't
worth the effort on your part. Zephyr is quite usable without it, using
just the "zwgc" client to recieve and display the messages.
