I grabbed a copy of the Andrew Toolkit for Linux version 6.1 and I must say
that this port definitely causes more problems than it solves.
Most of all it seems incomplete.
For example the .overview files are missing, templates are missing and
much much more.
Yet it's amazing to see what already does run, so I was wondering
if anyone has solved all these problems and tailored a running Andrew >= 6.1.

If so, I'd surely like to know where I can grab a copy.

It's all there, nothing is missing. The thing is, there are *two*
files you need to install. One of them is labeled as the "programmer
stuff", libraries and include files and the like. That's where the
overviews, templates, and so on are kept. You have to install *all*
of it in order to get *any* of it to work properly.

I'm just waiting for X11R6, so I can get the ATK 6.1 source and
compile it up myself.
