Hello, I would really like to appeal for the removal of the XBell() at line 1029 in fvwm/functions.c, part of execute_complex_function().
It doesnt serve any purpose as it is impossible to determine even if it was fvwm that rang the bell, and as no message is printed to stderr to indicate what the bell means there is no way for a user to find out what failed or what function was trying to execute when it failed. Additionally, it really drives me crazy as it makes a lot of the events supported by FvwmEvent totally unusable for me, as some of them may be triggered while the server is grabbed. Replacing the XBell() with a message to stderr stating "failed to grab server in function FooBar" or similar would be much more helpful to users who want to find out why their configuration isnt working, and much less annoying to users who realise that some commands may fail during a grab but want it anyway :) Thanks, Tavis -- ------------------------------------- [EMAIL PROTECTED] | finger me for my pgp key. -------------------------------------------------------
