>Motif and Lesstif are not compatible.
Since when? I thought the entire point of Lesstif was to be as compatible as humanly possible. The shared library names it provides are identical. The ABI it provides is either identical or really close.
I used to run commercial Motif dependent software with reasonable success with Lesstif substituted instead. That is a pretty high bar for compatibility.

all the lesstifs that I had encountered in distributions failed to work with dead keys. (Ie. when you put
<dead_tilde> <O> : "\325" Odoubleacute
in your ~/.XCompose, and then expect '~' followed by an 'O' to produce 'Ő'.)
This works with OpenMotif-2.1.32 (in NEdit for example), but no lesstif I've seen can do it.
