Re: tlug: Compiling Wnn 4.2

[Takeshi Hakamada <hakamada@example.com>]

Hi Rob,

I encountered same situation ago...
Imakefiles of Wnn4.2 is for X11R5. If you'd like to compile it on
X11R6.3, You need to apply patch.
Though I can't remember the location, I have patches. If you want
to get patches, I'll send you.

Takeshi.
