Apologies for following up to my own article:

>1. The menu invoked by the left mouse button on a terminal emulator window

Compiling the color version with -DCUT did it.  But cut and paste
aren't working.  Using -dC mgr says it's snarfing the apparently
correct number of characters, but they're all blank!  All help
welcome.

>3. I linked /dev/kbd to /dev/bell but MGR still does not beep.  (The screen

Compiling with -DBELL -DKBD did the trick on this.  My other questions
are still open, particularly, where do I find MGR clients?
