Hello ! I have a problem with the titlebuttons in tvtwm. In the file .tvtwmrc I wrote : RightTitleButton "pixmap.filename" =! "echo 'dfgdfg'" but it did not work exactly as it should. I got the button in the title, but nothing was echo'ed in the window. The question is: how can I make the TitleButton echo a string in the window. ---- I have a another question concerning the VT-options I get when I activate the ctrl-mousebutton2 in a Xterm. Can this be done by some key-combination instead ?. Thanks in advance. pilgrim@daimi.aau.dk Have a nice day.

You can't. !"echo 'blob'" is going to fork a shell and execute the thing in double quotes. Your echo will most likely go to wherever you started (tv)twm. -- Tom LaStrange toml@Solbourne.COM
