# X/Motif Hello World in Modula3

This is an example of programming X/Motif in Modula3. It is further documented with the m3doc system.

## Introduction

Modula3 can use `C` libraries such as X and Motif. To do so it needs:

- Bindings, in the form of interface `.i3` files. These were generated by automated and manual transformations of the equivalent C code or original specifications.
- Patterns to handle C's macros and vararg constructs. These are captured in the `Xmacro` module.
- Patterns to protect as much type safety as practical. These are demonstrated in this application, in the `ui_motif` subdir.
