I did so, and the output was:

[rodolfo@localhost Xaw3d]$ xmkmf
imake -DUseInstalled -I/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/config

; but then when I did '$ make includes' and then '$ make depend',
as prescribed in the README.XAW3D file, 
I got the following error message:

[rodolfo@localhost Xaw3d]$ make depend
bison -y -d laygram.y
/bin/sh: line 1: bison: command not found
make: *** [laygram.c] Error 127

In the '/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/config' directory there are some *.cf files.
I did so:

$ imake -I/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/config -DTOPDIR=../.. -DCURRENTDIR=lib/Xaw3d

, but all the same, at the '$ make depend' step I got the same
above error message.

Any suggestion?
Thanks indeed,
Rodolfo
