I think thats all resolved now, but I thought I'd mention, I put a macro for XUnmapWindow in fvwm.h, remapped the function call to print the __FILE__ and __LINE__ information, then invoked MyXUnmapWindow where the real XUnmapWindow was called.

It worked pretty well. I don't know if I should bother to commit it as ifdef'd debug code or not, its not that hard to recreate. I agree, most often its just one or 2 events that are of interest. I think I'll just hold onto it. -- Dan Espen E-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- Visit the official FVWM web page at <URL:http://www.fvwm.org/>.
