Hmm... it seems that the OffiX code is only good for one display so it is now implemented. To make it multi-display proof I have to remember the atoms for the DnD events on a per-display base.

And this is the point where the 'original' atoms get overwritten, cause offix.c only keeps one set of atoms. > Maybe 152 is DND on NT?

This would be the correct way I have to do it. But this will also result in a (nearly) complete rewrite of the OffiX lib I use (something I always wanted to do but never found the time to...) > I just hope that Steve lets this fix into 21.0. Steven? I think I will not have the time to do this this week. Perhaps I can start this weekend. The simple solution would be only to fix the display/atom stuff (small change) or do the whole thing. How does this fit into the XEmacs 21.0 release schedule? Regards, Oliver.
