wow! 1.2 is ancient.

I don't remember how the dmotif package worked in 1.2, you might need some commercial motif package (or try compiling open motif for 1.2) but the better bet would be installing the static package (probably in contrib of 1.2) it would be nedit-smotif. but this is a long time ago, so my memory might be hazy.
