It is not clear from whats there on sourceforge.  Is it true that the 
datadraw gui is only for windows right now?  I couldn't even figure out 
where to begin in building datadraw.  I tried

cd da
./makemake
make

which failed.  Haven't tried to figure out why yet.

Any thought of a port to gtk or motif?
