Date: 12 Jun 91 09:23:57 Patchlevel 6 of tvtwm is now available from export.lcs.mit.edu in contrib/tvtwm.tar.Z. Nothing real new, mainly fixes for some fairly nasty bugs that were introduced in the last patch. The most significant new thing in the tar file is a new utility that we've been shipping with swm. It's called swmxlate and it converts relative corrdinates to virtual desktop absolute coordinates. A sample use would be xterm -geom `swmxlate -geom +100+200` The xterm would be placed at +100+200 relative to where you are currently positioned in the virtual desktop. Here's the blurb from the patch file which has been sent to comp.sources.x: tvtwm patch 6 This patch fixes the following problems: 1. Fixes "phantom window frame" problems. 2. Bug fixes to window move cleanup. 3. Added gridded movement in panner. Try starting a pan operation and then hold down the shift key. (Salvador Pinto Abreu spa@fct.unl.pt) 4. Fixes the crash problem when multiple mouse buttons are pressed. -- Tom LaStrange toml@Solbourne.COM
