You see, bbkeys is GPLd, and fluxbox is not. It under the "noble" BSD licence. src/Keys.cc includes some reference to the GPL, and a couple copyright notices, but does not include a copy of the GPL, and also changes the licence. I am not sure that Jason Kasper and Ben Jansens allowed for this, but I pretty certain they did not. How noble. scott -- Copyleft (c) 2001, Scott Moynes
