I would like to be able to popup a menu of the current set of buffers and
select a buffer with the mouse - like you would select a menu option. I am
current running X11R5pl10/twm/epoch4.0p0/SunOS IPC 4.1.

Has anyone tried to do this type of thing before? I already use twm menus
to send commands to epoch, but I dont think it is possible to create a menu
on the fly (like a list of buffers). I would be interested in all solutions, 
including using other window managers!

Thanks in advance,
Anthony.
