Re: vim and 2.5.7 crash

However, if I edit a buffer, whether I save it or not, fvwm crahses with a signal 11, dumping core. It is noted that, if I open an aterm an THEN call vim, there's no problem. Also, other applications called similarly (eg: aterm -name mutt -e mutt), cause no problem on exit. I've installed aterm 0.4.2. I started an aterm, then typed: aterm -name vim -e vim xxx That gave me a new window running vim. I typed a few characters, then saved the file and exited with ZZ. No problem. I notice that aterm can be compiled with Afterstep support. When I configured aterm, it didn't use that option. I'm not sure if that would be shown with --help. Here's what I get: [EMAIL PROTECTED] tmp]$ aterm --help Usage v0.4.2 :(XPM,transparency,no fading,NeXT scrollbar,.Xdefaults) aterm [options] [-e command args] As far as the stack dump showing meaningless information, all I can suggest for that is to build fvwm yourself if you haven't done that already. -- Dan Espen E-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- Visit the official FVWM web page at URL:http://www.fvwm.org/.

_NIce_ screenshot!! Remko, do you by any chance remember where the background image came from? Just the thing for my daughter ;-) or did you produce it yourself? They come from the Dick Bruna website: http://www.miffy.com/ You can find a bunch of nice pictures there. cheers, Remko -- Visit the official FVWM web page at URL: http://www.fvwm.org/.

I've been there before but it never looked like they were working on it. I will look again. I dont even remember if I have it on my system.

Thank you for sharing. I like your screenshot too.. I am inpsired. Thanks!

There is a screenshot at http://www.physik.fu-berlin.de/~dhansen/fvwm.png It has several swallowed apps (xosview, xbuffy, dclock and two window manager applets) and swallowed Fvwm modules. The erotic, violence and cute wallpaper is from http://momonekodou.cool.ne.jp/mad-lovers/ The fvwm.rc as well as some mini icons and the window decorations is in http://www.physik.fu-berlin.de/~dhansen/fvwm.tgz You can get a lot more very nice window decoration From http://fvwm-themes.sf.net But be warned, the configuration file isn't well commented and may need some minor fixes. You will need fvwm 2.5 for it (get it from cvs, don't worry about stability, it's working very well). Regards, David -- Visit the official FVWM web page at URL: http://www.fvwm.org/.

FVWM: MozillaFirebird not honouring Style
Hi! Just wondering if anyone knows what can cause applications not to listen to Style-commands? I'm having difficulties with the Debian package of MozillaFirebird. However, when I tried the binary on http://www.mozilla.org/ it works just fine so it must be something with the Debian build. I recall something that it has something to do with the fact that they built it against GTK 2.0? -- Johan Svedberg, [EMAIL PROTECTED], http://johan.svedberg.pp.se/ -- Visit the official FVWM web page at URL: http://www.fvwm.org/.

FVWM: DONATION FOR THE LORD.
From: Mrs Serena Jones PLEASE ENDEAVOUR TO USED IT FOR THE CHILDREN OF GOD. I am the above named person from Kuwait. I am married to Dr. Harry Jones who worked with Kuwait embassy in Ivory Coast for nine years before he died in the year 2000. We were married for eleven years without a child. He died after a brief illness that lasted for only four days. Before his death we were both born again Christians.Since his death I decided not to re-marry or get a child outside my matrimonial home which the Bible is against.When my late husband was alive he deposited the sum of$8.6Million (Eight Million six hundred thousand U.S. Dollars) with one finance/security company in Amsterderm Holland. Presently, this money is still with the Security Company. Recently, my Doctor told me that I would not last for the next three months due to cancer problem. Though what disturbs me most is my stroke sickness. Having known my condition I decided to donate this fund to church or better still a christian individual that will utilize this money the way I am going to instruct here in. I want a church that will use this fund to fund churches, orphanages and widows propagating the word of God and to ensure that the house of God is maintained. The Bible made us to understand that Blessed is the hand that giveth. I took this decision because I dont have any child that will inherit this money and my husband relatives are not Christians and I dont want my husbands hard earned money to be misused by unbelievers. I dont want a situation where this money will be used in an ungodly manner. Hence the reason for taking this bold decision. I am not afraid of death hence I know where I am going. I know that I am going to be in the bosom of the Lord. Exodus 14 VS 14 says that the lord will fight my case and I shall hold my peace. I dont need any telephone communication in this regard because of my health because of the presence of my husbands relatives around me always. I dont want them to know about this development. With God all things are possible. As soon as I receive your reply I shall give you the contact of the Finance/Security Company in Amsterderm Holland. I will also issue you a letter of authority that will prove you as the original- beneficiary of this fund. I want you and the church to always pray for me because the lord is my shephard. My happiness is that I lived a life of a worthy Christian. Whoever that wants to serve the Lord must serve him in spirit and truth. Please always be prayerful all through your life. Any delay in your reply will give me room in sourcing for a chuch or christian individual for this same purpose. Please assure me that you will act accordingly as I stated herein. Hoping to hearing from you. N.B-PLEASE I WILL ADVICE YOU TO GIVE THE LAWYER IN CHARGE A CALL IN HOLLAND IMMEDIATELY, HE DOES EVERYTHING ON MY BEHALF AND HE'S VERY UNDERSTANDING AND I BELIEVE HE WILL LEAD YOU TO YOUR SUCCESS IN JESUS NAME, THE LAWYER'S NUMBER IS 00-31-620-668-086. Remain blessed in the name of the Lord. Yours in Christ, Mrs Serena Jones
FVWM: xterm bold font
On 19 Sep 2003 23:14:03 +0200, Remko Troncon wrote: http://www.cs.kuleuven.ac.be/~remko/fvwm/screenshot2.png I always wondered why people spend so much time configuring all aspects of a look, but do not improve such basic thing like their terminal. If a bold font is not specified using -fb option (or similar), than the terminal usually makes the bold font itself from the normal one. This looks pretty ugly, the real bold font is better. So, for example, if someone starts xterm like this: xterm -geometry 80x40 -sb +sk -si -sl 4096 -j -ls +lc -fn 7x14 the following addition makes it look nicer: xterm -geometry 80x40 -sb +sk -si -sl 4096 -j -ls +lc -fn 7x14 -fb 7x14bold Another issue, actually a question. Maybe someone here knows the answer. It seems that in xterm from XFree86-4.3.0, if you use +bdc or resource: XTerm*colorBDMode: true then the bold font is not used, only the bold color is used. In 4.2.x both bold color and font were used and I like this. Is this a bug or a new (mis)feature? Is there a way to have both this setting and bold font?
