I'm using fvwm-2.0.42.
If I define a menu such as:
AddToMenu "Window Ops" "Window Ops" Title
+ "Move" Move
+ "Resize" Resize
+ "Raise" Raise
+ "Lower" Lower
And then bind it to a mouse button with:
Mouse 2 R A Menu "Window Ops" Nop
Then when I click mouse 2, I get this message from fvwm:
[FVWM][staysup_func]: <<ERROR>> No such menu Window Ops
However, the manpage says that:
| using the backslash character. For example, if you have a
| pop-up menu called Window-Ops, then you don't need quotes:
| Popup Window-Ops, but if you replace the dash with a
| space, then you need quotes: Popup "Window Ops".
Replacing the "Mouse" binding by:
Mouse 2 R A Popup "Window Ops"
Now, clicking mouse 2 doesn't result in an error, but pops up just the
title of the menu, with no contents.
Of course, the easy fix is to change the space to a hyphen. However,
I've been working on the fvwmrc_convert script, and doing this
substitution from the script would be non-trivial.
Could fvwm be fixed to allow proper quoting, please ?
