    Hi Waylon,

    The files with the ".h" suffix are include files. These are needed in
    *addition* to the Xaw library, which should be found in
    /usr/contrib/X11R6/lib in the form "libXaw.xy" where "xy" may be
    something like "a" or "so".

    Please check if you have the Xaw library in /usr/contrib/X11R6/lib,
    and then include the following on your idt compile line:

       -I/usr/contrib/X11R6/include -L/usr/contrib/X11R6/lib
