Motif is worst possible alternative. It is sluggish. It is memory consuming. It is feature free; it lacks support for more complex widgets. Sure 2.0 has some support (little), but nobody uses that and lesstif implements 1.2. It is also butt ugly (if my desktop looked like that I would use it with the screen saver on). On the top of it all it take much time and patience to make stable programs with it.
BTW. Have you ever tried to use a multi-column list in Motif. There doesn't exist one, and it was hell on earth to emulate one.
I can understand why they started the lesstif project, many open source would not compile without it. Luckily this is not that large a problem anymore (I only use DDD).
