It's not obsolete by _any_ stretch of the imagination. And it doesn't take up much code in FVWM. Although I have to ask what you mean by "mwm-decoration". Remember that Motif applications set windowing hints that FVWM honours (and can be told not to). If you mean the default configuration file is too old, then see here: http://fvwm.lair.be/viewtopic.php?t=205 ... it's a work in progress Nick and I are sorting out -- so sit tight, as it will (at some point) need a formal discussion on the fvwm-workers mailing list, and now is certainly not the time. > Replacement by a user-defined set of rectangulars area forming the > decorations, and that > allow the use of shaped windows.

Truth is, the entire decor code (around which window decorations within FVWM are based) has been deprecated and due for a re-write (I am assuming) once FVWM 2.6 hits stable -- at least enough time for its inclusion in FVWM 3. That has been the plan for _a long_ time now, but it's like everything else: time. I have recently written a patch for FVWM (I am not releasing it yet to fvwm-workers) that allows one to apply a different colorset to each of the four borders of the window (and where applicable, a different colour for the handles of a window) -- it's things like this, that'll hopefully get completed and included with FVWM3. > - A "normal" alt-tab behavior.

Look at Metisse, as that might provide you with something similar. -- Thomas Adam ___________________________________________________________ To help you stay safe and secure online, we've developed the all new Yahoo!
