It's a great relief to see X again! I'm starting off with just the default twm. However, it seems that most window mouse and key events are not captured by the window manager, and instead are passed on to the app. For example: Button3 = : all : f.raiselower This works only for the root, the window titlebar, and in the iconmgr. In the window, it just passes Button3 on to the running application. "F1" = : all : f.raiselower "F2" = : all : f.warpto "emacs" Both of these work only on root. I've played with fvwm2 as well and experienced similar results. Anyway to get this to work? ...cj
