You mean maybe there's a reason it's called antisocial?  [Goes on to
ask how to get the window id of the obscured window and move it
programmatically].

There's no easy way to recover the window id and insure it always
works for each and every window manager (it's barely doable).  Why not
just add a line for the window manager configuration that allows a
window to be moved without needing the titlebar?  For mwm, something
like this would do it:

Buttons ButtonBindings
{
    ...
    Meta<Btn3Down>	window          f.move
    ...
}

You might also try getting the "security" banner placed at the bottom
of the screen since many people _tend_ to place things from the top
down.

Of course, you could do something reasonable like get the requirement
changed.

I am using freshly compiled X11R5 and Motif 1.2, and need to
internationalize an existing application on a Sparc.  I have the Sun
Western Europe locale package installed (French, German, etc.) but
have encountered several problems.  For example, the names of the
locales used by the Sun package are things like "fr" and "de", while
the locales used by R5 NLS are things like "lt_LN.bit8".  And no
matter what I use, I can't get the Compose key to do anything
reasonable.  If you've had any experience with this, please send me mail.

Hi,

I have a program that use XSelectAsyncEvent to handle
X events asynchronously (The program use only Xlib
routines, not Xtoolkits). I use this routine, because
I want to avoid loop that checks, if there are
any event in the queue.
This has worked in Ultrix running X release 4, but
now when we installed X release 5, it seems that
this routine is not anymore supported. 

Have you any idea how to handle events without
having a loop?

Thank you in advance.

Hi all.

Simple - my motif-GUI image processing program has a private 256 color
colormap.  I want to add an option to load/save so that users don't
have to go through the hassle of creating a specific colormap every time.

The only thing I've thought of is saving them the way SGI does in a 
'rather boring' 256 lines - of - r - g - b values...  I suppose this
is nice because a user can edit the file and change things easily,
but why not use my neat program? ;-)

Does anyone have a 'better' way - (i.e. space).

Mike

The window is sort of like a spreadsheet, with lots of text being
drawn.  Window updates are instantaneous on every other display
we have.  On my RS/6000 model 220, AIX 3.2.2, it takes up to 30
seconds to do a redraw.

The problem is the X server, I'm pretty sure of that.  The RS/6000
version is quite speedy when displayed on an HP 700.  However, the
HP version is slow as a dog displayed on the RS/6000.

Each time a cell is drawn, there is an XFillRectangle and an
XDrawString.  These are the principle Xlib calls used to refresh
the window.

I ran the app through xscope, which revealed that when displaying to the
RS/6000 display, there were FAR more PolyText8 and PolyFillRectangle
requests.  However, inserting a counter at the place where I make the
above mentioned calls shows that the same number of Xlib calls are being
made (roughly).

It's almost like my two Xlib calls are generating many many more X
protocol requests on the RS/6000 server than on the others (HP, Sun,
DEC, SGI).

Any ideas ??

Dear Reader!
Two months ago i got a Sigma LaserView Plus Card and 19" Monitor for my
AT486. The Monitor has 1664x1200 dots and up to 4 grayshades (with two
bitplanes - it is mostly used with 1 bitplane pure monochrome).
Because it was a 2nd hand deal, and the german distributor changed
from REIN electronic to ?, i am out of support for this fine display.
I'm running Linux (a UN*X derivate) on my AT and have the capability
to compile a new X386 server. My problem is getting information
how to hack the X11-sources or if anyone had done this before.

If you have so: Please send me email-adresses or names of ftp servers

System: Sun SPARCstation IPX, SunOS 4.1.1, X11R4.
Problem:  Occasionally, perhaps one in four or one in every five times I
exit X, I get a stream of <ctrl>-D characters being spit out from somewhere,
which causes a stream of "Use 'logout' to logout." messages to appear on my
screen.  After about twenty of them, the machine logs me out.  That's OK,
I guess, as that is what I want to do when I get out of X most of the time.

Question 1:  What's causing this stream of <ctrl>-D characters?
Question 2:  How can I fix it?

Details:  My .xinitrc file initiates various xterms and a clock in the 
background, then runs 'twm' in the foreground.  I get out of 'twm' and X
by selecting a menu item in a 'twm' popup menu.  I then call 'clear_colormap'
and 'kbd_mode -a' to restore the default colormap and restore the keyboard.
It is here that my problem occurs.

Not that I know of, primarily for the reason that you would need hardware
of the class you list above your sig to run it.  Since PS code goes
through the interpreter -> RIP -> output device you should be able to
do this by writing something that stands between the RIP and the output
device and then quickly plasters it on the display.  gs writes to the
screen straight from the RIP, so what you are seeing is the actual 
processing in action.   One of the machines with an optimized display
PostScript (NeXT, RS/6000) might be a good candidate.

I know this has come up before, but, naturally, I didn't pay attention
then... 

I am trying to piece together imake for our DG Aviions, running DG/UX
5.4.1, X11R4, and GNU cpp version 1.96.  Things seem to work pretty
well, but occasionally I get a preprocessor error which says, for
example:

	xxx.tmpl:40: invalid preprocessor directive name

This always occurs on a comment line, preceded by the /**/# construct.
However, it does not happen with all comments.

Why does this happen with some comments?  Is there a cpp switch I can
use to correct this?  

I have been able to get around it by using the XCOMM define from
X11R5, but several times other users have come to me after a make has
exploded, and it always involves a package whose Imakefile #included
template files local to the package.  I have told them to replace
/**/# with XCOMM, but it would be nice to find a way to build these
packages without changes.

Any help would be appreciated.

Also, if anyone has a config file for DG/UX 5.4, I would like to see
it.

Thanks,

Bud

Has anyone out there successfully integrated the Xbae Caption & Matrix widgets
into UIMX.  I'm using HP's flavor called Interface Architect.  Pointers to
code, code, advice, or anything else greatly appreciated.  The documentation
is the pits.

Thanks for all the responses to my query. Most of the respondents
pointed out that I can remap the function keys for an individual
xterm if I use the -name option to change the application name (I
thought I'd have to recompile xterm). That left me with the problem
that we use several of the 'F' function keys with twm, but Larry
Virden solved that by pointing out that the 'R' keys could
be used too (seems like I could have thought of that myself!).
In addition, I've found that recompiling xvttool with
the openwin V3 libraries gets rid of the main problem we had with
it. So I really can have it all!

Thanks to all who responded; a partial list is below.
