Xaw-xpm is a hack on Xaw3d, which is in turn based on the 'standard' X11 Xaw widget set. It adds the ability to insert colour images into the backgrounds of widgets, vastly improving the look of your Xaw apps. Just put the library (libXaw.so.6.0) in place of your current one (usually /usr/X11R6/lib on Linux systems) and customise away with editres, etc. Hacked by Ben Buxton .
