I wish I knew a good way to do this. Key release bindings froze fvwm or FvwmProxy too often to be usefull (e.g. if you opened a menu with the key held down and released it before closing the menu). So I removed the code again. I really like the flexibility of remote controlling FvwmProxy via "SendToModule", but it doesn't work on key release. It's virtually impossible to guarantee no key realeas events are lost unless the keyboard is grabbed, but then either fvwm or FvwmProxy grabs it and the other will freeze (well, if FvwmProxy is remote controlled, it does not need keyboard input, but then we still have to prevent fvwm from running arbitrary functions). One solution might be to let fvwm pass a keycode to FvwmProxy. The module could actively watch the state of the key and close if it has been released. To keep the code simple, we could allow just modifiers (which are easier to watch). > If the focus isn't on a proxy, will FvwmProxy get any alternate > indication of the alt release? Not from fvwm. > I don't suppose the event will hit an X KeyPress. Ciao Dominik ^_^ ^_^ -- Dominik Vogt, [EMAIL PROTECTED] Reply-To: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
