Bogstad) Organization: Johns Hopkins Univ. Computing Ctr. Lines: 13 When using the "twm" or "wm" window manager the commands xprop and xplaces seem to be unable to obtain useful information about my windows. Is this a problem with the programs/managers in question or a consequence of the way that X works? Please note my ignorance of X is high at this point. I'm just trying to figure out how things work or don't work. Thanks, Bill -- Bill Bogstad bogstad@cs.jhu.edu Work: (301)338-8019 bill@green.bph.jhu.edu
