I am trying to port an appplication which uses X11R5 from linuxto
DOS5.00. I used make to compile the sample programs. They did not run
properly. They did not crash, but they did nothing. It was like they
exited as soon as they started. It appears that my directory structure
for x11R5 is not correct. Does the path for X11R5 have to be c:\dvx? I
would prefer to put the files in another directory. I had changed the
environment variables to point to that directory. Is the c:\dvx path
required and compiled that way without environment variables? It may be
that I still have to set the environment variables properly.

Any or all of the above may true. What application? Does it have
Imakefiles? What makefiles did you start with in your port? QDeck
did not do a good or complete job in porting either X11R4 or X11R5 to
DJGPP, and in particular they don't supply sources. Are you sure you
have the X11R5 libraries? DESQview/X _does_ often assume that things
will be present in the DVX home directory; usually these things can be
changed by environment variables. This is very system- and program-
specific, unfortunately.
A better place to ask may be comp.os.msdos.desqview.
