On every build, I check for the external widget still working. I am running 21.2 (Dionysos) on an IRIX 6.5 box, and it works fine. There is something wrong with Motif (as in, it core dumps if you build with any Motif), but I have heard that it never worked well under Motif, so I avoid doing that. I have been very busy, and I haven't had time to create an example file (or get rid of hte DOC file). Maybe when my child is born in July, I'll have more free time. :-) -- Colin

You could also try running XEmacs until it hangs and then attaching the debugger afterwards. Jan

But the app_shell has set it's mappendWhenManaged property to false, and so the windowmanager should ignore it. I think this must be fixed in gwm. Regards, Oliver.

If I recall correctly this creates a fake (unmapped) window that has the appropriate properties on it. Maybe exiting gwm somehow maps this window? Jan

You need to #ifdef WINDOWSNT around emacs.c:vars_of_ntproc() rather than #ifdef HAVE_MS_WINDOWS. The former indicates you are compiling natively, the latter indicates you require the native gui. andy -------------------------------------------------------------- Dr Andy Piper Senior Consultant Architect, BEA Systems Ltd
