I just untarred the lesstif0.89.9 tar-ball which I redistbute via
lesstif Organization. It untars without problems.
tar -zxvfp lesstif-0.89.9-cygwin-v1.1.tar.gz
From where did you get lesstif0.89.9.tar.gz. There is no such file
on our LessTif Ftp server?
Anyhow looking at the first few lines of your error messages, it is rather
a read/write permission problem on your Windows machine. Are you
on Windows NT, if so are you logged in as admin? Try loging in as a user
and extract under user account.

I just downloaded the LessTif 0.89.9 and tryed untarring it and got the

tar: Error exit delayed from previous errors
Based off how the tar file is layed out I untarred it from /
if that is the case how can it link to ../Lesstif from the root directory?
using tar xfvz
did I use the wrong tar command?
