Pine and fvwm2
Hello, I used to run pine under an xterm or rxvt while using fvwm and I had full cut/paste support (I mean, I could copy from the pine screen and paste into any other X-application and viceversa). Now that I am using fvwm2 the pine screen ignores the cut/paste events even though they work fine on the xterm and rxvt screens (other than pine). Can somebody give an idea on how to fix this? In a separate issue, I liked the little virtual (sticky) desktop that used to show up in my screen allowing me to navigate from one virtual desktop to another by just clicking the appropriate rectangle. How do I enable this in fvwm2? Thank you for your info, Pedro Ivan -- -- TO UNSUBSCRIBE FROM THIS MAILING LIST: e-mail the word unsubscribe to [EMAIL PROTECTED] . Trouble? e-mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

If you have the enable-mouse-in-xterm box checked cut paste no longer works. I don't know if that is what you have done, but that tripped me up for a while.

How do I enable this in fvwm2? Module FvwmPager.

Thank you, Cut and paste functions work well with the shift key. Pedro Ivan -- On Tue, 26 Nov 1996, Rick Macdonald wrote: Pedro I.

In pine, go into Setup/Config and look at the feature enable-mouse-in-xterm. If you have this turned on, apparently you need to hold the shift key when cutting/pasting. Here is the help info: FEATURE: enable-mouse-in-xterm This feature controls whether or not an X terminal mouse can be used with Pine. If set, and the $DISPLAY variable indicates that an X terminal is being used, the left mouse button on the mouse can be used to select text or commands. Note: if this feature is set, the behavior of X terminal cut-and-paste is also modified. It is necessary to hold the shift key down while clicking left or middle mouse buttons for the normal xterm cut/paste operations.

How do I enable this in fvwm2? Easy way out is to edit your ~/.fvwm2rc and add to AddToFunction InitFunction whatever's in there + I Module FvwmPager 0 0 ^^^ (see man on FvwmPager and fvwm2). Also add this line to RestartFunction, so the pager is activated when you restart fvwm2, too. I have a file called ~/.fvwm2/post.hook which has the following on it: # # START-UP Functions # AddToFunc InitFunction I Module FvwmButtons + I Module FvwmPager 0 0 + I Module FvwmAudio + I Next [!iconic CurrentScreen xterm] Focus + I CursorMove 30 40 AddToFunc RestartFunction I Module FvwmButtons + I Module FvwmPager 0 0 + I Module FvwmAudio + I Next [!iconic CurrentScreen xterm] Focus + I CursorMove 30 40 # Uncomment this to make windows auto-raise after [x] milliseconds # AddToFunc InitFunction I Module FvwmAuto 0 Shouldn't this make the trick? When I change some other stuff in this file I can see the changes right as soon as I reliad fvwm2. But I don't have any pager at all.
