I want to place a window in the second virtual horizontal screen. To do
this I have an executable menu option to do the following:
hpterm -title HLC =80x30+1024+180
When I start the window from the home virtual screen HLC appears in the
right place. If I am in the second horizontal screen already, it gets
added to the TWM Window Manager list, but doesn't appear on the screen.
If I deiconify it from the TWM Window Manager, the screen jumps to the
second horizontal screen, scrubs the background with trash pixels and
the window still doesn't appear.
I read about forcing USPosition in the README.tvtwm, but I can't find
out how to do this.
Is the bug in tvtwm or in my brain ?? This is driving me crazy.
I'll summarise any replies and/or bug fixes.
Mike.
