Thanks to everyone who responded with suggestions for features they would like to see in a window manager. I have added the following features to twm. 1. A list of window names to auto-raise. 2. A list of window names to NOT put a title bar on. 3. The ability to source a startup file other than $HOME/.twmrc 4. To read a filename from the cut buffer and then read that file into the cut buffer. To answer a couple of questions: > 1) I see that there is going to be a 'keyboard' button. If that > button isn't clicked on any window, will input focus still > follow the pointer? Yes. > 2) Once a window is iconified, will a click on the icon deiconify > it? Yes. When I said that twm now currently works only in monochrome. I should have mentioned that only the title bars and pull-down menus will appear in monochrome. An application which uses color will not be effected. I'm trying to convince my boss to let me post twm. I can post it as soon as I get the OK, its in a farily stable state now. Is the right place for it to go comp.unix.sources? -- Tom LaStrange Evans & Sutherland Computer Corporation UUCP Address: {ihnp4,seismo}!utah-cs!utah-gr!uplherc!esunix!tlastran Alternate: {ihnp4,decvax}!decwrl!esunix!tlastran
