I am reading a book about dtksh. The first "hello world" example begins as follows:

. $UTILDIR/xutil.sh

XUinitialize TOPLEVEL Hello "$@"
XUlabel LABEL $TOPLEVEL labelString:"hello, world"
XUrelize $TOPLEVEL
XUmainloop
Is the file xutil.sh available in current open sourced CDE in FreeBSD? I can not locate it.

I am trying to change the icon for Firefox using X resources and CDE. I am not sure if it is possible anymore. I have tried this: Dtwm*firefox*iconImage: Dtterm and this: Dtwm*mozilla*iconImage: Dtterm in .Xdefaults This way of changing the iconized image is known to work with other apps. Is it still possible to change the icon in firefox? I am using FreeBSD 13.2, Firefox 115.6.0esr (64-bit) and Common Desktop Environment.

How to change iconbox title in MWM?

I am using the Motif Window Manager as my desktop. Motif allows many settings to be adjusted in ~/.Xdefaults. I have a lot of settings, which are confirmed to work here, such as changing the color. One setting which I strangely cannot get to work is changing the iconbox's window title. Adding Mwm*useIconBox: True to ~/.Xdefaults allows the iconbox to appear, but it displays the default title "iconbox". According to the manual, there are two settings, Mwm*iconBoxTitle and Mwm*iconBoxName, one of which I believe should allow the title to be changed, but I cannot get either to work. Preferably, I'd like the iconbox to display the day's date as its title, so that real estate on screen has some use. How can I get the Mwm*iconBoxTitle option to work? I've tried many different combinations of commands in the ~.Xdefaults file, such as: Mwm*iconBoxTitle: my title Mwm*iconBoxTitle(my title) Mwm*iconBoxTitle: "my title" I've found sample screenshots of different OSes running MWM confirming that the iconbox window title can be changed. I've also found a few sample ~/.Xdefaults files using these Mwm*iconBoxTitle commands, yet copying this code to my own ~.Xdefaults did not result in any title changes. How can I change the window title of the Motif Window Manager's iconbox?

Where to place .Xresources on modern systems?
According to some old documentation about `mwm`, many settings for this window manager must be placed in an `.Xresources` folder in the $HOME directory.

According to some old documentation about mwm, many settings for this window manager must be placed in an .Xresources folder in the $HOME directory. When I normally boot up my computer (Debian 11), mwm appears to ignore and not load the settings in ~./Xresources. I found a word around is to type xrdb -merge ~/.Xresources, but I'd like a permanent setting. What is the proper way to configure mwm on modern systems where ~/.Xresources is no longer used.

Where is Motif used today?
At my University there is a course called “Programming with Motif”. It being quite an old framework, I am wondering where Motif / programs made with Motif are used today.

How can I make a windows to be "always on top" in Motif mwm?
An old-school UNIX question: Motif allows to have a X11 motif MWM window always on top by code. However, I would like to know if I can make the same with an external command (in a similar way you can change the name of an existing window with `xdotool`)
