First of all, is there a better news groups regarding CLX questions? I'm trying to map onto the screen without user interference using the TWM window manager. When I create a window and map it onto the screen it will force me to position the window first. This is not tolerable for a hypertext kind of applications. If I use :override-redirect :on for create-window then the window gets mapped directely, however, then the window will not be decorated. I've seen a decorated window mapping popping onto the screen using TWM in some CLX based applications, i.e., there must be a way. Any ideas? Do I need some real bizzare combination of keywords for create-window, or is there some special way to setup the display, or.. HELP! Alex
