Redaelli,
You will indeed need Motif if you want to port to Linux 68K. I bought
mine from Red Hat for $150 US. I don't know what that is in Lira.
There is a freeware product called Lesstif (www.lesstif.org) that
emulates the Motif API. It isn't finished yet, and failed miserably on
POV-Motif. It also failed to properly run anything of mine but the most
rudimentary applications. Still, that was 9 months ago. It may be
better now.
As for the port to Linux itself, I had little trouble with it.
POV-Motif has been successfully compiled on Solaris, SunOS, HP/UX, and
Linux. Amazing what POSIX/SVR5/X/Motif compliance will do. Getting the
makefile to find everything and supporting the static link were the only
real problems.
If you do manage to get a port, send me the executable so I can post it
on the website.
Thanks for your interest in POV-Motif.
Regards,
