Jason, I think this means that we have to trap a window manager message/hint/whatever that tells us that an application is requesting to be minimized. It is up to our internal window manager to then perform the minimization and report that to the app that the minimization has been performed.

Harold - How does the following sound? Check the function `x_iconify_frame' in xterm.c in the Emacs sources to see what it does. Basically, what it boils down to is Emacs running `XIconifyWindow' which sends a `ClientMessage' with `IconicState' to X. See if the windowmanager listens to the

Does anyone have any suggestion on how to minimize GNU Emacs running under Cygwin/XFree86 with the keyboard? I don't really need Emacs' M-Spc command, so should I just undefine it? Will that cause the keystroke to be passed to Windows? -- Jason Dufair - [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.dufair.org/

i didn't realize from your initial mail that you were using -multiwindow. unless i'm mistaken, if you were running emacs or xemacs inside a window manager, C-Z or C-X-Z would minimize just that window. as far as multiwindow mode goes, i don't know. for me, Windows-M minimizes everything also.
