Mailing-list archives

2006-02-25 Thread Vincent Lefevre
For the mailing-list archives, the FVWM web pages point to
mail-archive.com, which is out-of-date: the latest messages
are from June or July 2005.

http://news.gmane.org/gmane.comp.window-managers.fvwm.* should be
used instead.

In the FAQ (#1.4) -- there's also detail on howto obtain the actual mbox
files.

I've been too honest with myself, I should have lied like everybody else.



Fvwm bug 1393 in FvwmWinList: more details

2006-02-25 Thread Vincent Lefevre
Concerning the bug 1393 (corresponding to bug 263945 in Debian),
it seems to be due to a wrong skip value for the buttons. Consider
the following part of the modules/FvwmWinList/ButtonArray.c code:

Button *ButtonNew(char *title, FvwmPicture *p, int up)
{
  Button *new;

  new = (Button *)safemalloc(sizeof(Button));

The memory pointed by new contains random data, so that one can
normally add the following line:

  new-skip = 1;

without changing the behavior. With this added line, the bug is much
more reproducible. I don't know what is the fix (forcing new-skip to
0 here makes the bug normally appear, probably because some buttons
must be skipped).
