My impression based on the IRC conversation was that Eterm -x didn't work under e17 without this patch, and that this patch made Eterm more EWMH-compliant. If that's not the case, then I misunderstood, and the patch needs to be rethought. > This would just set the MWM hint and hope for the best.

Some user was in IRC yesterday complaining about a WM (e17 I thought, but I could be mistaken) that did not provide the _MOTIF_WM_INFO atom, and thus Eterm kicked in override_redirect. Not knowing about Ctrl-click, he assumed the Eterm was fubar. So apparently *something* out there doesn't implement MWM hints properly. Michael -- Michael Jennings (a.k.a.
