That's what I said.  You have one command with an "on" and an
"off" option instead of "Iconify" and "Deiconify".  This makes
toggling these settings possible in the first place.  My wording
was a bit unfortunate, perhaps.

Re: xfm and moxfm: Once more unto the breach...

2001-08-13 Thread Bob Woodside

Well, this one has led me a merry chase...and I'm still chasing.

To recap the problem: it boils down to the need to suppress Xlib's
automatic grab when a mouse button is pressed, and the unwanted
LeaveNotify/EnterNotify
events generated by that grab; and it's the Leave/Enter events that
confuse Xtlib's double-click translation logic. This automatic grab used
to be overridden by our button grabs on the parent window, but that's
not happening at present.

The problem seems to be mostly confined to focus.c: focus_grab_buttons,
which doesn't quite work as intended. I've hacked it up to the point
where it does what I think was intended. It seems to work pretty well,
except that it breaks MouseFocusClickRaises. There is clearly some
additional synchronization needed that I haven't figured out yet.

Dominik, if I can't work out the remaining piece in a few days, I'd
like to send you a patch to see if you have any ideas. (I'd rather not
commit my changes as they stand now, knowing that they will break
something.)


Cheers,
Bob

As I understand, SuSE is rpm-based?  If true, it has to be able to
use RedHat's .rpms.  For case it isn't, I've put the necessary files to
http://ulpc08.gsi.de/~yakimenk/tmp/xforms.tar.bz2 (that's just the
contents of xforms{,-demos}.rpm).

Is it possible to run this on a SuSE system?  Could you try to
isolate the necessary files from the RH system and send them to
me?

That awfully sounds as like a syntax error in your style line.
Try to enclose the font name in double quotes (it contais
whitespace).  If that does not help, pleas send me the command
line you sent to FvwmConsole.

I don't think so.  Fvwm is unhappy with the command line.  It
tries to interpret the font name as a style, not as the argument
to the Font style.

Thanks for the report.  I will apply a patch to the man page as

This is because you are compiling with version 0.5 of the strokes
library.  You have three options:

 1) Compile without stroke support:

  $ ./configure --with-stroke-library=no

 2) Downgrade libstroke to a version < 0.5.

 3) Upgrade fvwm to the latest snapshot or development version
(or wait for 2.4.1 where the problem is solved).
