I tried to view "matlab advanced features" from the motif help
program. It said "starting external viewer", then printed in the
xterm I started it from:
Could not start a viewer!
Could not start a viewer!
It should have printed the error in an X window -- I had hidden the
xterm window. My workstation does not have the links from /usr/athena
to /usr/athena/bin; this might be the reason it couldn't find the
viewer (this is a potential problem for 7.3 -- what if the workstation
type being used does not have these links?).
