Back in the dawn of time, well, X10 at least, there was a thing called (to the best of my memory) ActiveIcon. This allowed you to iconize a window and have a small (roughly icon sized) window that would scroll as input came to the window and would accept input from the keyboard (with the mouse positioned...) without having to de-iconify first. This disappeared with X10 but seemed such a useful thing, I was wondering if anyone out there had brought one up under X11 (R4, pref) Please reply via email and I will summarize what I learn.... -dan -- -- Daniel Chaney -- -- postmaster, newsguy, main archiver for ms.uky.edu (Univ of KY Math Sci) -- -- {uunet and the like}!ukma!chaney chaney@ms.uky.edu chaney@ukma.BITNET -- -- "I'll have time enough for sleep when I'm dead and in the ground" --
