Actually WindowMaker rootless is a problem on the iBook (and similar ones) Function keys are bound to HW features (light/sound intensity). For F12 (eject CD) this can not be revoked (needed to open Applications window/palette. The others may be freed using some control panel logged into OS9 <similar to: enable key mapping but turn off F1-F15 ? >). Is there a link which explains Fkeys in this and other contexts of X-Windows?. e.g. Fkeys would also be needed for easy access to context sensitive Help in Gimp... (what else for?) May I change F preferences? Where do I find other F-key settings for wmaker? Are they changeable? -- Peter Sint [EMAIL PROTECTED] ------------------------------------------------------- This sf.net email is sponsored by: Jabber - The world's fastest growing real-time communications platform!
