FVWM: pass on all keyboard events to client window

2014-01-31 Thread gator_ml

Hi,

I defined lots of keyboard shortcuts for fvwm. With most programs that
I use, I manage to either change the keyboard bindings for fvwm or for
the program in question to avoid collisions. Unfortunately there are
rare occasions, where this is not possible.

Is there any way to tell fvwm to pass all keyboard events to a specific
client window if it has the focus without making this window completely
unmanaged?

Regards,
   Peter

No, fvwm key bindings are global. What you can do is to change the
keyboard modifiers. As example you can use 4 instead of M, and 4S
instead of MS (4 is the Windows left key or Super_L).

Key F A 4S SomeFunction
