Hi all, I've been running fvwm on a linux Zaurus PDA and it's by far the best window manager I've found for the platform despite the limitations of a PDA (you can see screenshots of fvwm on Zaurus on this thread: http://www.zaurususergroup.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=8280&st=0 )
Can anyone suggest how to efficiently set up the use of Stroke for a PDA? Stroke itself is working fine, but I have not found it very usable because: 1) there is only really one button with the stylus so you can't simply overide that for the stroke commands. 2) binding the stroke commands only on the root window is a bit limiting, and you would have to get to the root window first. 3) using a modifier key means that you have to use the keyboard, and if you're going to do that it's just as easy to bind a key to the command than have to use both keys and stylus, also if the PDA is open such that the keyboard is unaccessible then you lose the stroke commands right when you need them most. 4) There are some buttons on a reserved area of the screen that you can tap with the stylus, so while using StrokeFunc NotStayPressed looks promising, a button press will exit from the mode - so when you go to draw the stroke you're immediately exited from the StrokeFunc The only things I can think of is some sort of command that flips to another desktop for the stroke and then immediately flips back (not a very good solution) or patching the StrokeFunc source so that the mode with NotStayPressed exits on a ButtonRelease event rather than ButtonPress event. Can someone who knows the source better give me some pointers? I think it would be an incredibly useful function on a PDA once it's working thanks Alexei -- Visit the official FVWM web page at <URL: http://www.fvwm.org/>.
