[LAU] compiling Snd from source; GUI?

I recently downloaded snd-12.0.tar.gz from sourceforge
and ./configure and "make install" completed without incident.
However, whenever I execute snd, I don't get the GUI but
rather, a command-line prompt "snd>".

According to the README with the source, the default is
for ./configure to create a makefile that uses Motif
for the GUI, but even when I execute "./configure --with-motif"
and then make, Snd does not pop up a GUI, all I get is the
command-line prompt.

The end of the "./configure --with-motif" process reads:

  Options selected
  -------------------------
  Snd version ...........: 12.0
  CFLAGS ................: -O2 -I. -g -O2
  LDFLAGS ...............: -ldl -Wl,-export-dynamic
  prefix.................: /usr/local
  extension language.....: s7
  audio system...........: ALSA
  graphics toolkit.......: None
  optional libraries.....:
  random features........:
  environs...............: x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu gcc


Is the line "graphics toolkit.......: None" why I am not getting
the GUI versions of Snd?

Is there something I am not understanding?

Thanks;
