Anyone have some advice for Chithra?  It's been a while since I've thought
about StripTool or EDM.
This is not an dvice but just a report.
I run StripTool from edm but did not get the message Chithra mentioned.

I got the message "missing charsets in String to FontSet conversion"
when I started edm but NO message when started StripTool from edm.
My environment is:
	EPICS 3.14.7
	+ edm 1-10-1ze
	+ StripTool 2.5.9.0
	on Scientific Linux 2.4.21-27.0.2.EL
		(running on VirtualPC on MacMini with MacOSX 10.4.2)
EPICS, edm and StripTool are build from the source code on this machine,
i.e. Scientific Linux.

Dear Christopher:

I am developing EDM applications in a Linux machine.  I am trying to
open StripTool through shell command tool in EDM. But I get the
following error:
Representation size 80 must match superclass's to override font
John Sinclair asked me to do the export LANG=C;edm but still I get the
above error. Do you have any suggestions?
Thanks,
Chithra.

Chithra,
Redhat 7.2 was the first to use UTF-8 rather than ascii. Try doing
export LANG=C;edm
The version of edm is found by doing
 edm -v
When you run StripTool from the command line, do you get the same
message?
Also, see if your environment is significantly different when an edm

invoked
shell script is run; i.e. have the shell command do env. Then do the

same
command (env) from a terminal window.

The simple shell commands work, like 'ls' and running '.exe' files.

The
font problem comes only when I start the StripTool.
I tried in two machines with the following operating systems:
1. Scientific Linux SL Release 4.0 (Beryllium) with openMotif
2. Red Hat Linux release 7.2 (Enigma)with  openMotif
The EDM version and StripTool versions are:
1. EDM:???
2. StripTool: CA v2.4.3, Linked with CA:4.9
I am not able to find the version of EDM.
Thanks for your help.
Chithra.
