I was reading the xterm man page the other day and discovered the active icons option, which gives you a minature xterm instead of an xterm icon. In twm, you can actually type into this tiny xterm, but in fvwm2, which I normally use, you can't. The man page for xterm says that some window managers won't let you type into the icon, but fvwm2 allows you to type into other iconised things (e.g. xdvi), so it might be possible... Is it possible and if it is, how can I do it? Thanks, Ben. To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
