hmm...
i use gnome and the sawfish window manager and left clicks work for me. it's probably because a long time ago i setup sawfish to use the (otherwise useless) windows key as the meta-key for window actions (it seemed to make more sense and is very handy). if anyone is interested, they can do this in gnome configuration manager -> sawfish -> shortcuts.

... and this raises a harder question... I just found out that "gnome" grabs alt-left-clicks, which I had always thought a polite window manager should pass to the application. But the "data structure" editor also uses alt-clicks, in a much more essential way than the number box does (alt clicking a number box acts like a "mute", and toggles between zero and the last nonzero value.)
I don't know of a good way to prevent window managers from taking over various clicks... is there any standard way that applications and window managers can negotiate this? Or any standard notion of which mouse actions should belong to an application?
thanks to anyone who can shed light on this one... Miller

There is no auto-resizing and no alt-click (at least alt-click can

Just a quick question: What does alt-click normally do? I can't use
it,
because my window manager catches it to move any window.
