Last week I asked if anyone could tell me what Postscript code I could put in my user.ps in order to obtain windows WITH borders but WITHOUT title bars. The best reply I got was to try something using the cps facilty. Before I try something this horrible, perhaps someone can help me with the question below. Fact 1: I have found the appropriate places to hack and hew /usr/NeWS/lib/NeWS/sgiwin.ps so that the windows have borders and yet no title bars, provided I leave the edited file in /usr/NeWS/lib/NeWS. Fact 2: If you examine user.ps, startup.ps and the .4sight directory from /usr/people/4Dgifts, you see how you can modify the way the title bar is drawn. Fact 3: If you copy over the 4Dgifts stuff, replace .4sight/window.ps by your own hacked and hewed version of sgiwin.ps, nothing is changed! Finally, my question: Why is nothing changed when you replace .4sight/window.ps with (almost all of) sgiwin.ps? And how can you get it to change? Thanks in advance for any ideas.
