Hello,

I hope this isn´t a FAQ, at least I could find it in any documents
available to me. If the question is asked frequently please point me to
a source where I can find the anwer.

My problem:

I would like to know if there is a way to (temporary) disable the global
key settings for a specific application. E. g. I have bound the
following to my function keys (in ~/.fvwm2rc):

Key F1 WTSF N Iconify
Key F2 WTSF N Raise
Key F3 WTSF N Lower
Key F4 WTSF N Maximize 0 100
Key F5 WTSF N Module FvwmIdent
Key F6 WTSF N Refresh
Key F7 WTSF N Delete
Key F8 WTSF N Destroy
Key F9 WTSF N Restart fvwm2
Key F10 WTSF N Stick
Key F11 WTSF N Next [*] Focus
Key F12 WTSF N Prev [*] Focus

Now I would like to start an application that also makes use of the
function keys. An example of such an application is Emacs. But with the
boundings above they won´t work of course. I understand that I could
modify the context from "WTSF" to "TSF", but that is not what I usually
want since I prefer to use the function keys anywhere within my windows.

If someone has an idea what I could do (Style option?), please let me
know. Thank you very much in advance.

Is "Windows for Dummies" another case of "this sentence no verb?"
