Okay, maybe I'll improve it a little...

That works fine.  What do all the flush's do?  Are they required to see
any errors during dpsexec?  I noticed dpsexec only seems to print a
prompt in some situations, not after every 'Enter'.  But when I enter
something that causes a stackunderflow or nocurrentpoint error it prints
the error and a prompt immediately.

I also rebuilt the clock example against OpenMotif (the one I was trying
to build with LessTif).  It doesn't show any errors now, but it still
doesn't display anything.  Possibly related to the texteroids problem?
