Oh... You'll have to forgive me, I'm not a native english speaker, so
I didn't understand exactly the relation with the context until now.

So doesn't this mean that now every leave event is accompanied by an
enter event? What is the difference now, between using the -menter
option and the -menterleave option?

Well, it works the way I want it, now. But that seems to be not
exactly the way it should work, according to the documentation /
manual page.
So when/if it will be changed, to work the way it should work, then it
won't work the way I want it, and I will be unhappy again... :-)
Or, to say it otherwise, what makes me happy now, probably should not
be that way...
The behaviour of -menter is what I want, because it seems to be the
same as the behaviour of -menterleave, only without the problem with
gv and grabbing the pointer...
On the other hand, now that you say that the pointer leaving a window
for the root window also generates an enter event for the root window,
that might be the appropriate behaviour... But then what is the
difference between the -menter option and the -menterleave option?

"A few days back" is here since the 6th of July, to the 11th of
July... In those times, FVWM updated from CVS head (I updated about
twice a day) had that problem with FvwmPager.
On the other hand, FVWM updated from CVS a half an a hour ago (12th of
July, 2002, 12:10 AM GMT+03), seems to have fixed this...

Well, back when you said you updated a lot of the FvwmPager drawing
code, some time after that it wasn't fixed yet. But apparently there
were some FvwmPager fixes today/yesterday too, and those seemed to
have fixed it...

Oh... well, I'll check it out once in a while...
