Nope. Even blackbox on localhost has issues. Also, used to run window managers like this remotely all the time (on Linux and other Unices); this happens only on MacOS. (I’m not talking about fullscreen mode. In fullscreen mode of course there are no problems.) -- Ambrose Li | Time zone: GMT-4 (Eastern) ambroseli.ca “A good style should show no sign of effort; what is written should seem a happy accident.” — Somerset Maugham ___ Do not post admin requests to the list.

Re: Would like to see window resizing not confined to lower right corner
I haven't run X11 on my Mac for a long time, but I used to run other window managers (it's currently set up to run blackbox, but I think before I switch to bb I ran metacity via ssh, or maybe xfwm via ssh). They work but I remember there were issues, related to how they interacted with window focus I think, but this was so long ago I don't really remember.

I don’t have the new OS but could it be that you’ll actually need to give ls full access? I don’t know how the new permission system works but ls and the terminal (whether xterm or Terminal.app) are separate programs. (If this works that will be a nightmare for shell users since that means every single command will need to be set up with additional access...) -- Ambrose Li // http://o.gniw.ca / http://gniw.ca If you saw this on CE-L: You do not need my permission to quote me, only proper attribution.
