That's a function of the window manager, not the application (although the application will need to respond to the appWinResize X event). Which window manager are they running? In general, you'll need to map an X keysim to the window manager "maximize" event. The mouse and/or keyboard focus will indicate the correct window, and it should be a toggle in the window manager (one event does maximize, and the same event on a maximized window should revert to it's previous state). The real question will be whether x3270 is coded to respond to the resize event. I don't think it is (and looking at the source seems to bear that out), so you may not be able to do this. You could probably start the x3270 session with a window geometry equal to the full screen, and then minimize it to an icon -- would that be good enough? In that case, see above advice wrt window manager maximize events. David Boyes Sine Nomine Associates
