[comp.windows.x] Pinning down root menu in uwm

PJS@GROUCH.JPL.NASA.GOV (Peter Scott) (08/30/89)

The default menu that pops up on middle-button in the root window in uwm
has the annoying trait that moving the mouse outside the left or right
limits of the menu (somewhat narrow) causes the menu to vanish.  I thought
I saw a command recently that would change this, but I haven't been able
to recover it.

What's a good solution to this?  It occurs to me from reading chapter 8 of
O'Reilly volume 3 that by simply defining the root menu twice with the
same context and buttons inside a .uwmrc file, that the menu would then
pop up again on exiting to the left or right of the menu.  Anyone got a
better idea?
