  Motif (widget toolkit) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Motif (or capitalized MOTIF) is a graphical widget toolkit for building graphical user interfaces under the X Window System on Unix and other POSIX-compliant systems.
Motif is distinguished by its use of square, chiseled, three dimensional effects for the various user interface elements — menus, buttons, sliders, text boxes, and the like, which was in vogue for that era.
Motif's operation was designed to correspond closely with the more familar Microsoft Windows and Presentation Manager interfaces, and Microsoft played a key role in designing the original style guide.

That is, the widget public header file defines the mechanism to instantiate a widget and the methods to access or modify the widget's public data.
However, if your widget is using a resource name already used in the Motif toolkit, you should not define a string equivalent for it.
However, the widget public header file does not need to define string equivalents for these resources because these resource names are already used in the standard Motif widget set (for example, by XmLabel).

 Desktop Technologies -- Motif
Motif® is the industry standard graphical user interface, (as defined by the IEEE 1295 specification), used on more than 200 hardware and software platforms.
Motif provides application developers, end users, independent soft ware vendors, and system vendors with a high degree of portability, interoperability, and scalability for their applications.
Motif widgets have associated sets of resources that can be specific to a class of widgets or inherited from a superclass of widgets.

 Widget Overview
The widget toolkit maintanance is reduced and it requires fewer platform secific developers to add new features and maintain it.
The most important, is that when the widgets live inside the layout engine they are to do as little as possible, they must dispatch all their events and then wait to be told what to do.
Currently, most all the widgets are developed from the native platform widgets with the exception of the Toolbar, the Toolbar Manager, the ImageButton, and the MenuButton (a button with an assosicated drop down menu).

 Widget toolkit - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Widget toolkits must have a means to position the widgets in their containers.
Also the look and feel of the widgets can be hardcoded in the toolkit, but some widget toolkit APIs decouple the Look and feel from the definition of the widgets, allowing to define them at the initialisation of the application or even at runtime (see pluggable look and feel).
The Standard Widget Toolkit is a native widget toolkit for Java that was invented as part of the Eclipse project.

 X/Motif Programming | Linux Journal
Widgets are very useful because they simplify the X programming process and help preserve the look and feel of the application so it is easier to use.
Basically, each widget is defined as a C data structure whose elements define a widget's data attributes, or resources and pointers to functions, such as callbacks.
A widget's parent manages the child's size and location, determines whether the child is visible, and may also control input to the child.

 Kenton Lee: Indirect OSF/Motif Widget Resources
Whenever you have a problem with a widget's configuration, the first place you should look for help is, of course, the documentation for the particular widget on which you are working.
The parent widget is the composite (manager) widget that controls the layout, size, and position of its child widgets.
You should study the combination widget's documentation to determine the subwidgets' classes, then study the classes' documentation to determine which resources are available for them.

in short motif is widget toolkit and because of that the game should called backgammon widget toolkit and not motif backgammon.

 Widgets
Where possible, widget toolkit elements are built around the operating system's native dialogs and controls; as a result, there are instances where the toolkit behaves differently from operating system to operating system.
Base widgets (created with the WIDGET_BASE routine) play an especially important role in creating widget-based IDL applications because their behavior controls the way the application and its components are iconized, layered, and destroyed.
On Motif platforms, you can use the WIDGET_STUB routine to include widgets created outside IDL (that is, with the Motif widget toolkit) in your IDL applications.
