[Therion] xtherion not responding

[Jonathan Prouty]

Hello all,
I finally commited to upgrading to 0.4.0 (I know, I'm terribly behind...)
because xtherion began to lock up on me. Instead of trying to identify the
problem and fix it, I decided that now was a good enough time to upgrade.
So, I grabbed the new tarball, untarred it, ran make, then went in to test
everything out before I turned it into a slackware .tgz (my own needless
complication. I should go back to debian, but I digress).

Unfortunately, I still have the same problem that I had under 0.3.9 :-(.
When I simply run 'xtherion', the nice little bat splash screen pops up,
tells me it's loading various modules, then loads up the main xtherion
window, as it normally does. However, when I attempt to interact  with the
window, I get no response. Also, when I drag another window over top of it,
the xtherion window wont redraw, which I take as an indication that it is
seriously hosed. In the status bar, it also says 'User interface is not
active. To activate it, open existing file or create new one'.

If I run 'xtherion /on/a/known/to/work/thconfig.th' it loads up as it
should, with my thconfig.th file in the editor. The window is still
unresponsive however, and won't redraw. I put up an xwd screen dump at
http://www.utc.edu/Students/Jonathan-Prouty/therion.png if anyone would care
to look at it.

I have spent an hour or so trying various things, but to no avail. Would any
of you happen to have any ideas? Thank you very much in advance.

Sincerely,
Jonny Prouty
