Did anyone ever dupe OpenLook?

  As opposed to Motif, you always had one OL implementation freely availablye (XView), so there was little need for it. It's also a bit weirder, so harder to dupe as e.g. a gtk/qt theme. The scrollbar being a prime example. Also, even older. I think CDE was basically Motif's victory lap.

    Scrollbar in OL was cool. And the round (oval) buttons also. The pinning of menu items and automatically selection of first menu item was also a nice concept.
