Since I uses csh, I made a  file env.source:

setenv LDFLAGS '-L/usr/openwin/lib'
setenv X11_LDFLAGS  '-L/usr/openwin/lib'
setenv LIBX '$(LIBXMENU) $(X11_LDFLAGS) $(LIBXT) -ltiff -ljpeg -lpng -lz -lm -lXpm -lX11'

, and then said "source env.source", and then "env", and got:

LDFLAGS=-L/usr/openwin/lib
X11_LDFLAGS=-L/usr/openwin/lib
LIBX=$(LIBXMENU) $(X11_LDFLAGS) $(LIBXT) -ltiff -ljpeg -lpng -lz -lm -lXpm -lX11

as the final three lines.

Look ok to you?

I think (maybe wrongly, for sure!) that csh has no export cmd,
nor(?) needs one?

Oh, better do a "make clean", I suppose, first.

Here's what I ended up with in that src/Makefile:                                                                                                           
                                                                                                                                                            
LDFLAGS=-L/usr/openwin/lib -L/usr/openwin/lib                                                                                                               
...                                                                                                                                                         
X11_LDFLAGS = -L/usr/openwin/lib                                                                                                                            
LIBX= $(LIBXMENU) $(X11_LDFLAGS) $(LIBXT)         -lXpm  -lX11                                                                                              
                                                                                                                                                            
Note that my libx is a lot shorter than yours; I guess I'll ltry
making it this way first, then worry later about those other
things.
