I was looking through the ICCCM v1.0 that came with X11R4, and I have a question about using the WM_PROTOCOL property in a client. When TWM is told to destroy a window, and the client has the WM_PROTOCOL property set to notify when the window is deleted, will the client receive a WM_DELETE_WINDOW message? It would be too time consuming for me to check it out myself, so I humbly ask the net to help me out. Thanks in advance. +-----------------+---------------------------+-----------------------------+ | Bill Poitras | Polygen Corporation | {princeton mit-eddie | | (bill) | Waltham, MA USA | bu sunne}!polygen!bill | | | | bill@polygen.com | +-----------------+---------------------------+-----------------------------+

Thanks in advance. I have tested it out and twm does not seem to pay attention to it. swm does, however. -- Eric Taylor Baylor College of Medicine etaylor@wilkins.bmc.tmc.edu (713) 798-3776

[Does twm understand WM_DELETE_WINDOW.] It's currently sort of crocked. In retrospect, the f.delete processing should probably have been incorporated into f.kill. Oh well.

I do this to run OpenLook applications. function icccm-kill { f.delete f.kill } -- Jeff Sparkes jsparkes@bnr.ca Another feature is that the seats float, so that the airline can recover them if the plane crashes into the ocean. -- Dave Barry
