[comp.windows.x] Intruguing bug in TWM.

peter@ficc.uu.net (Peter da Silva) (05/31/89)

Intel 302 running Intel/BellTech System V. If you turn on NoRaiseOnMove
in your .twmrc, then drag a window that's behind another one so that when
you release it your pointer is over the window in front, both windows will
be highlighted.

Speaking of twm, is there any way to convince it to provide ClickToFocus?
And any way of telling xterm to require a meta key to be down before doing
a cut?

I just tried it with the newest stuff and the problem appears to have
been fixed.

How about something like:

Button1 = : window : f.focus
Button1 = : frame  : f.focus
Button1 = : title  : f.focus

I know this doesn't give you complete click to focus  but it's pretty
close.
