Hi Managers,
It seems that I had set some X resources in the file .Xdefaults which are
reserved by "wish" namely:-
*XmMainWindow*Foreground: black
*XmMainWindow*Background: white
With the two lines removed from .Xdefaults I now have a nice coloured background
and visible buttons.
Thanks to <Daniel M Flax> dflax@bizarro.chi.mvision.com
Who mentioned looking at my properties choices.
