I noticed a bug in which keyboard shorcuts do not function directly
after a window kills itself. The keys are ignored until the mouse
crosses another window boundary, when they work as normal. I.e. I
use:
# Arrow Keys
# press arrow in the root window, and scroll by 1 page
Key Left R A Scroll -100 0
Key Right R A Scroll +100 +0
Key Up R A Scroll +0 -100
Key Down R A Scroll +0 +100
# press arrow + meta anywhere, and scroll by 1 page
Key Left A M Scroll -100 0
Key Right A M Scroll +100 +0
Key Up A M Scroll +0 -100
Key Down A M Scroll +0 +100
and then exit say, netscape, via netscape's own menu. The mouse is
now over the root window, and none of the 8 shortcuts above work. I
now move the mouse in & out of an xterm, and all is well.
[Did not find any mention of similar bug in bug list, todo list, or
any fvwm2 homepage. Applies to 2.0.43 & 2.0.45, Sun solaris, and
Linux x-free86. Any further questions should be directed explicitly
to me, as I am not a list member.]
