ps x | grep FvwmAuto
tells you if FvwmAuto still lives.
I guess it still lives, but please tell me, if it does.
My FvwmAuto still works fine (I use FocusFollowsMouse):
AddToFunc RestartFunction "I" Module FvwmButtons
+ "I" Module FvwmAuto 500
+ "I" Next [emacs] focus
ctibirna_at_gch.ulaval.ca already reported this bug, I looked through the
code, found a possible hole in the logic, if you used ClickToFocus
(do you ?) and published a new version at
<URL:
http://www.auto.tuwien.ac.at/~albrecht/FvwmAuto.c.gz>
(this version also fixes a possible bug for timeouts >1000 ms :-) )
He said it still didn't work and didn't reply since, so I'm somewhat
hanging in the air.
please try the new code & if it doesn't work, add
#define DEBUG
in the first line and mail me the output.
you could also change the #if 1 in line 152 to a #if 0
this replaces the smaller condition by explicit coding:
I suspected a compiler bug when evaluating this expression, but Cristian
Tibirna didn't reply to my message, yet.
If this fixes the bug, please tell me what compiler you use.

it's the change in the libs.
StrEquals (2.0.44) versus some !mystrcasecmp (2.0.43)

A engineer, a doctor and a politician were sitting in a dark room
arguing over whose practice was the oldest. The doctor felt he had won
because the first rib was taken out of Adam and given to Eve. This was
a surgical procedure. The Engineer said that Earth was made out of
chaos, therefore making his work the oldest. But then, the politician
asked, "Who do you suppose created the chaos?"
