I have a fix for the lockup bug under click-to-focus OLWM, but you're not gonna like it... In wgraph/graphxt.c:YCreate() insert the following: ... XtSetArg(args[i], XtNiconName, graph->name); i++; XtSetArg(args[i], XtNiconic, True); i++; XtSetArg(args[i], XtNx, x ); i++; ... What happens is that each window is created iconic and then deiconified when it's activated (as part of its creation). The only problem is that this becomes visually distracting (look ma, exploding windows!) and the first two windows remain icons at program startup. (Because our variant pops up the help window at startup for users considered to be clueless, and this takes the activeness away from the first two windows. This would take just one extra round of window activations to fix). IMNSHO it'd just be eaiser for most of the workstation users in the universe (i.e. those with Suns) to switch to Motif (as they will be forced to do anyway. ;-). -- Henry J.
