Chris, This is way beyond me. I implemented the mouse and keyboard code as best I could with the crappy documentation that is available. Since then I have not seen anything that explains what the ``real'' way to do things is, so I will just leave the code be until either someone else messes with it (fine by me) or until someone can find some better documentation.

After investigation this appears to be a bug in the Motif libraries within Solaris. However as it appears different on different Xservers the common factor seems to be the mouse setting. A post : http://groups.google.co.uk/groups?hl=en&lr=&ie=UTF-8&oe=UTF-8&threadm=3717E7 13.BBD3D2F1%40soest.hawaii.edu&rnum=2&prev=/groups%3Fq%3Dmotif%2Bproblem%2Br ight%2Bmouse%2Bbutton%2Bsolaris%26ie%3DUTF-8%26oe%3DUTF-8%26hl%3Den Seems to indicate that the server tells the client how many mouse buttons are supported. This seems to be a motif issue. Under NEdit for example it is possible to get the right mouse button menu by disabling num-lock, scoll-lock and caps-lock. Of course Razor doesn't work this way. (basic problem is drag and drop doesn't work over ssh, since it uses it's own protocol, so a right mouse button is the only other way to work it). Exceed doesn't share the problem cygwin has. Cygwin's problem seems very similar to the problem indicated by the above post. i.e. cygwin tells the motif version there are X number of buttons and it chooses the last button for right button as default. Is there any way of checking what an individual application believes or indeed checking/changing what the cygwin is telling the clients? Your's confused further, Chris _________________________________________________________________ MSN 8 with e-mail virus protection service: 2 months FREE* http://join.msn.com/?page=features/virus
