I've got the same problem on my home box, but at work I can
cycle windows without hitting enter. I use Debian woody/testing
on both, and have previously compared versions and diffed
all the config files, and unless I'm missing something, both
systems have identical versions of blackbox and bbkeys, and
identical config files.
I apt-get update/upgrade both systems fairly often, and the
situation has persisted for maybe a couple months. I haven't
dug much further into it, and figure the (slightly) annoying
behavior may just "go away" at some point, or maybe eventually
I'll try to find out where the problem is.
The versions,
ken@shand:~ (work, no enter required)
$ dpkg -l blackbox bbkeys
ii blackbox 0.62.1-1 ...
ii bbkeys 0.8.4-1 ...
ken@moffit:~ (home, have to hit enter)
$ dpkg -l blackbox bbkeys
ii blackbox 0.62.1-1 ...
ii bbkeys 0.8.4-1 ...
These files are identical on both systems:
~/.bbkeysrc
/etc/bbtools/bbkeys.bb
/etc/bbtools/bbkeys.nobb
The ~/.blackbox/menu files differ, but nothing relevant there.
The ~/.blackboxrc files differ in the following entries, where the
"<" refers to my work machine (where I do not have to hit enter):
< session.screen0.toolbar.onTop: False
> session.screen0.toolbar.onTop: True
> session.screen0.windowPlacement: CascadePlacement
< session.screen0.windowPlacement: RowSmartPlacement
< session.screen0.workspaceNames: Workspace 1,Workspace 2
> session.screen0.workspaceNames: etc,main,plcs
< session.screen0.workspaces: 2
> session.screen0.workspaces: 3
Is there another setting that might control this in another file,
e.g., a termcap or some X config file?
