I am trying to use xwd and xpr to produce a series of figures for an introduction to using X on workstations that I am writing for my department (describe default setups, pointers to more info, etc...). I've been running xwd on one machine, getting snapshots of windows on another machine. So far it has worked great, except I haven't been able to figure out how to get a dump while I have a twm menu pulled down? It insists on grabbing the mouse and having me click on the window I want (I've been clicking on the root) which it can't do while twm has the mouse. I thought twm's "NoGrabServer" might solve my problems, but it doesn't seem to. Any suggestions? Is there a "just dump the root window" option? g.

Ok, so reading the source to xwd showed me that there is a -root option (should I report this omission in the man page as a bug?), so now I can get images of my twm menus. There still seems to be a problem though. It gets the menus right, and gets the highlighting right on the choice I am selecting when I "xwd", but it doesn't get twm's little arrow cursor. Any thoughts? g. George Hartzell (303) 492-4535 MCD Biology, University of Colorado-Boulder, Boulder, CO 80309 hartzell@Boulder.Colorado.EDU ..!ncar!boulder!hartzell
