Hi Piotr,

: I would like to achieve the following effects:
: 
: 1. I'd like to have the FvwmButtons window raised when Super_L is
:    pressed, and lowered when it's not.  It seems to me that this
:    requires a way of assigning a command to a key release event.  Is
:    this possible in fvwm?

Unfortunately FVWM only allows you to bind to key _press_ events.

If you're trying to keep your buttonbar on top of all your xterms etc,
you may want to try the 'StaysOnTop' style or try an autohiding
buttonbar like I do. (See Q7.17 in the FVWM FAQ.)

: 2. If the above is impossible to achieve, I'd like the Super_L key to
:    act as a lower/raise toggle for the FvwmButtons window (this one I
:    can do).  In addition, whenever Alt or Control is pressed,
:    FvwmButtons should be lowered.  The problem I have with this is
:    that if I assign a keybinding to these keys, they are no longer
:    passed to the application, which breaks some programs (eg xterm).
:    Is there a way of passing the intercepted key to the application?

I recently implemented a patch to allow window-specific key-bindings (to
avoid problems like these), hopefully it will be added to FVWM soon.

Bye,

SCoTT. :)
