Attached is a patch to fix a problem where clicking the mouse button to popup
the windowlist on the secondary screen of an xinerama setup always pops up on
the primary screen.

Adding Bidi to Fvwm ?
With the recent work on multibyte support in Fvwm2 - has any thought been given to those languages that are right-to-left oriented (Arabic, Farsi, Hebrew, etc...) ? In other words, have any considerations been given to the addition of Bidi (Bi-directionality) ? http://www.unicode.org/unicode/reports/tr9/ May I suggest a compile-time option of including Fribidi (open source Bidi library), http://fribidi.sourceforge.net I'd be interested in adding Arabic support to Fvwm but that is very much hinged on the inclusion of Bidi (its a first-order requirement). It would greatly simply life for me (and others I'm sure) if there was an option to include and enable Bidi without having to resort to hacks. For what its worth - the inclusion of Bidi will certainly increase Fvwm's user base, since it would be one of the few window-managers with FULL multibyte support; a BIG deal to those that are right-to-left'ies :-) Any takers ? Olivier ;-) ? Thanks.. BTW: Please CC replies to all noted in header. - Nadim __ Do You Yahoo!? Yahoo!

I don't know whether I will add bidi support, but I may try to start it.
At least I understand what this means. It is not trivial to immediately
understand why this is needed and even less trivial to understand that
it's all heuristics, there may be possible conflicts in any algorithms.
Examples of logical input / visual output.
% echo SHALOM, fvwm (SHALOM is hi in IVRIT!). | fribidi -C CapRTL
.(!IVRIT is hi in MOLAHS) fvwm ,MOLAHS
% echo hi 1-2 (english) is SHALOM 1-2 (IVRIT). | fribidi -C CapRTL
hi 1-2 (english) is IVRIT) 2-1 MOLAHS).
# the second example seems like a bug in my fribidi, but maybe not
Actually, bidi is orthogonal to unicode and to aligment, i.e. it may be
applied to a normal 256-symbol charset, and, I think, we may assume it
only affects an order of symbols inside the string, not its alignment.
So, what I may do is to add --with-fribidi-{library,includes}, and try to
figure out where this bidi filter should be added. But I am not sure yet
what exact parameters should be used in all cases (MULTIBYTE or not) and
what are the conditions when bidi should be applied at all.
Regards,
Mikhael.
