xfig, distributed in comp.sources.x, looks wonderful, and seems quite
easy to use right-out-of-the-box. Best of all, the price is right :-).
I don't want to gripe, but at the same time don't want to hunt this
down if someone else has fixed it...
Text can only be drawn at the beginning of a session. Retrieval
of saved files, saving files, or entering image will stop xfig from
accepting text. By this, I mean that the "T" button is reverse-video,
the "text input from keyboard" string appears in the dialog box,
but nothing typed at the keyboard appears on the screen (nor on
saved images).
I'm running SunOS4.0 on a Sun 3/60, for what it's worth. I compiled
with -f68881 in addition to the options specified in the distributed
makefile.
Thanks...
