A collection of ISO C binding interfaces to X/Motif, to create graphical user interfaces for Unix in Fortran 2008. Currently, fortran-motif is just a proof of concept. The library includes selected bindings to Xlib, Xt, Xm, and the XmHTML widget to render HTML 3.2 inside a Motif widget (optional).
On FreeBSD, install Open Motif with:
# pkg install x11-toolkits/open-motif
On Linux, additional development headers may be required. If you want to use the XmHTML widget, install:
# pkg install x11-toolkits/xmhtml
The compilation has been tested on FreeBSD 12 with Open Motif and GNU Fortran
10. Build fortran-motif with the provided Makefile and (optional)
arguments:
$ make motif
You probably want to add the argument PREFIX=/usr on Linux. In order to
include bindings to the XmHTML widget, run:
$ make all
See directory examples/ for Motif applications written in Fortran:
- bitmap shows an XBM bitmap.
- click displays an XmPushButton widget inside an XmForm widget.
- www shows an XmHTML widget with HTML 3.2 content.
Compile and run a particular example with:
$ make <name>
$ cd examples/<name>/
$ ./<name>
