So now I know, and am making the feature configurable (which in turn leads to new functionality, etc). Do you mean _NET_WM_STATE_FULLSCREEN in _NET_SUPPORTED array? Awesome3 does advertise this feature. But neither Alt-Enter nor Full Screen option set the atom. hmm - xterm is only asking if the atom is set. The bug-fix I mentioned is that it may not find the atom on 64-bit machines. (I have my ongoing fixes in ftp://invisible-island.net/temp - this one simply changed CARD32 to long). I installed awesome on my Debian/testing, and it does seem to honor the fullscreen feature. (The screensize is not right, since the bottom row of text is incomplete due to the increment size, etc - something I'll have to continue working on). At the moment, I'm just considering configurability to allow the fullscreen feature to be entirely disabled (along with the key translation), though just disabling the key itself may be preferable. under tiling window manager? ;-) I did suppose it would work better in ion2/ion3 than the ordinary layout, which uses character-sized increments for the window manager hints. But I've been busy setting up new machines for testing ports, and didn't follow up on checking that. Given your question, I've added ion2/ion3 to my "Lenny" machine. Any other suggestions for testing? Too many window manager out there. I would suggest “awesome” which I use. ;-) yes - too many. I'd been using fvwm for quite a while, but in my newer environment I'm mainly using Mac OS X with Parallels or some type of VNC display. -- Thomas E.

Any other suggestions for testing? A quick check with ion3 shows xterm able to do full-screen. Switching between fontsizes is perhaps a little better than the ordinary layout.

Bug#613645: xterm: Alt-Enter (M-RET) doesn't work
Package: xterm Version: 268-1 Severity: normal -BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE- Hash: SHA1 Hi, As a emacs org-mode user, I heavily depend on the M-RET key binding. When you type Alt-Enter xterm should send ^[^J then emacs will interpreters it as M-RET, but with this version of xterm this key binding no longer works. You can also use `cat` to check the key as cat will print them literally. For example: $ cat ^[h^[h^[h shows that I've typed three Alt-h combination. But Alt-Enter sends nothing.
