To avoid any problem with the Thot library, you have to respect the following
hierarchy:
Thot---+ config -+ en-XXXdialogue (application dialogue)
| |
| + thot.ini
|
+ XXX ----+ EDITOR.A (application sources)
| |
| + *.c
| |
| + Makefile.in
|
+ obj ----+ bin ----+ XXX (application executable)
|
+ XXX ----+ *.o
Please check Amaya and Thot editor examples.

We have met too many problems with the $THOTDIR variable, so we have decided
to
suppress it and to use the hierarchy to locate libraries, the print (available
for
all thot applications) and configuration files.
