Hello,

I am just getting started with XWT and having some trouble.

First off, I am trying to run the samplers of the various widget sets.
I can't say that I've had much luck.
After downloading the xwt binary I run
./xwt-xyz sampler-0.5preX.xwar

Can someone tell me the correct current combination between the xwt 
binary and the widget to write XWT apps and use the widget library ?  

I have been trying to write my own little XWT app.  After downloading a 
sampler widget xwar and unpacking it in a special directory, I wrote my 
own little simple xwt demo:
<xwt>
<import name="xwt.widget" />
        <template thisbox="frame" width="220" height="260" color="white">
        <box orient="vertical" width="200" height="250" >
               <group id="radios" text="Radio Buttons">
               <radio id="r1" label="X1" value="Option 1" />
               <radio id="r2" label="X3" value="Option 2" />
               <radio id="r3" label="X2" value="Option 3" />
               </group>
               <group id="buttons">
               <button id="b1" text="test button 1" counter="0" 
label="Button One" />
               <button id="b2" text="test button 2" counter="0" 
label="Button Two" />                           <button id="b3" 
text="test button 3" counter="0" label="Button Three" />
               </group>
 
        </box>
        </template>
</xwt>

However, I never actually see the buttons!  This may have something to 
do with the incompatability between the widget sets and the xwt binaries.

Thanks for your help!
