I don't know if it will help but you should probably set the mwm/vuewm
resource "enforceKeyFocus" to False.  When set to True (the default),
mwm/vuewm is not playing by the ICCCM rules.  mwm/vuewm will do an
XSetInputFocus to top-level windows when it hasn't been requested to
and if I remember correctly, it does it with a timestamp of
CurrentTime!  Very anti-social.  I spent spent a bunch of hours
tracking this one down...

I would like to be able to control some MWM menus from a system-wide
configuration file while allowing the user to modify other menus. The
way I do this now is I have a script the user can run that copies a
.mwmrc file into their home directory concatenating a file called
~/.mwm_personal on to it.

In the initial .mwmrc file I reference a menu name that should be 
defined in ~/.mwm_personal. As a result the user can maintain one 
menu and I can maintain the rest. The problem is that
the user must run a script to keep up-to-date with my stuff.

Is there a way to have MWM use more than one configuration file?

Thanks.

We are looking for a Unix / X / Motif product for the 486 platform
that provides a GUI interface for the definition and display of real time
data, including the ability to produce "trend" displays for the data.

Products that we have looked at include: FactoryLink from US DATA (under SCO)
and GE Cimplitity (under ISC).  Both of these products contain the ability to
draw graphical displays, then attach real-time data elements to those displays
in order change the color, size or values shown on those displays at run-time.

We are looking for a product that will do these things, PLUS provide us the
ability to build X/Motif applications (ala ISC's BuilderXcessory or UIM/X)
that will interact with the user and have the same look-and-feel as the windows
produced by the display generation tool.

If anyone has seen others products on the market that provide this or similar
capability, please drop us a line.  We'll post a summary of responses if anyone
else is interested.

Thanx in advance,

John Feras

  Please excuse me if these questions are dumb (BTW I did RTFM but it
was less than helpful. I am running X11R5 on Sun Sparcstations running
SunOs 4.1.x.  According to the X-Window Users Guide Iam supposed to be
able to issue a command like so:

  xterm -e "do_something & 

 This is supposed to fire up an xterm window in which to run said
command and close up when its finished. It works on some other Suns I have
access to but not the ones I care about. On those the window opens and
a message appears "xterm: can't execvp do_something". I believe I have
something configured wrong but I can't figure out what.

second question - what can I do to emacs so that it recognizes the
arrow keys in an xterm window? This, I believe is another
configuration question.

I use the following command in my .twmrc (I use ksh) to run framemaker remotely. This
works from any workstation since it uses the 'hostname' command to workout what machine
I am on.

   Hi, I'm running OpenWindows 3.0, and am having the problem

   Xnews appears to be saving under the popup menus where those menus
   obscure other windows, but not where they obscure the window to which
   the menus are attached!  Yikes!  The menu windows have 'override_redirect'
   and 'save_under' set on them.

Just a point to remember,  save_under and backing_store are hints
to the server about the intended uses of windows.  The server is
free to ignore any of these hints and therefore the behavior isn't,
strictly speaking,  a bug :) .   On the other hand,  I would expect
that save_under would either always be honored or not,  with the 
possible exception of very large windows or tight memory.

You might make sure that those bits are really set.  A tool such
as xwininfo will do a query and print out the information for 
you.  You might also get valuable info by using xprop.

If you don't mind violating the ICCCM (and you can convince your users
that it's OK to do so) try calling

        XInstallColormap (theDisplay, grayMap);

right before your XFlush call.  This will take your special colormap
and jam it into the frame buffer's hardware.

To get this to work well in a system-wide context you may wish to fool
around with ColormapNotify events, and you may wish to explicitly
uninstall your colormap when the user moves the pointer out of your
window or some such.

Ordinarily, the window manager handles this for you according the the
colorFocusPolicy and so forth.  But, if you want to colormap-animate
you may need to be unconventional.  The penalty is that other
applications may "go technicolor" or "go gray" in a way that users
feel they can't control.  You may also incur some maintenance and QA
headaches.

(In case anybody wants to flame me for suggesting that an application
 call XInstallColormap directly, please consider saving the bandwidth
 instead.  I know it's a violation.
 Rule No. 1:  any rule may be broken for a good and documented reason.)

Normally, there is a startup file that gets executed when
you run startx.  I believe the name of the file is
'.startxrc' or something like that.  Your problem might be
that when X starts up, all it does is start up the Xserver, 
it dosen't start up any clients, such as xterm.

This is a sample .startxrc

#
# Clients started by default by startx
# The last client should NOT be started in the background.
#
xterm -sb  &
exec uwm

    $HOME/.Xdefaults file, or to $OPENWINHOME/lib/app-defaults/XTerm instead:

        XTerm*VT100.Translations: #override \
                <Key>L6:select-set(CLIPBOARD)\n\
                <Key>L8:insert-selection(CLIPBOARD)

    Under OpenWindows 3, this is already in the app-defaults file, so if it
    isn't working, check that XFILESEARCHPATH is set to
        /usr/openwin/lib/%T/%N%S
    and if it isn't, either set it or copy/merge the above lines from
    $OPENWINHOME/lib/app-defaults/XTerm into /usr/lib/X11/app-defaults/XTerm.

Hope this helps.

What Tan says is true. I have picked up the Asente-Swick widget set from
gatekeeper, but now I get some really rude compile errors. I had to add
"#include <X11/ObjectP.h>"
to GraphDispP.h to compile BarDisplay.c, but I can't for the life of me figure
out how to fix up Box.c, and I'm growing increasingly uncomfortable with
the idea of adding statements to this code (I'm talking about the stuff from
asente-swick.examples.tar) just to make compiler error messages go away.

I'm starting to think there may be something wrong with my setup, although
what that might be...it's certainly not a question of missing include files, 
because it's finding everything. And it's not my libraries, because it's not
getting that far.

Plus, our sys-admin got laid off a couple of weeks ago, and his functions got
moved to someone who is only a beginner with Unix, and doesn't speak X yet.

Would I be better off trying to learn XView? I had thought that the Xt stuff
was the next thing to tackle after I learned enough Xlib to convince myself
that I needed a toolkit to do any real X app's. I have read, however, that
XView has prettier buttons, and I'm pretty sure we have the XVview libs and
includes on our system.

Is the O'Reilly XView Programming Manual the best book for learning XView? I
have had a hard time getting excited about any of the O'Reilly books, but
read somewhere that later editions are better.

Why is it so hard to get a push-button to work in X?
