RE: alt-tab: client window receives tab / pressing both shift-key s = caps-lock

["Pille Geert (bkarnd)" <geert dot pille at vandemoortele dot com>]

So I gave undue credit, ah well, it won't make up for all the times people
receive "stank voor dank" (hard to translate: sh*t for thanks).  I thought
you had found out about phantom key release messages?  I have to scan the
mailing list in a hurry, there is other work to do.

I don't know enough about pseudocolor either, just some Oracle products need
it, and at higher depths xdpyinfo shows that XWin delivers truecolor.
Before XWin I was using Kea!X, and they had a option that allowed
pseudocolor.

I didn't get the "I see dead cursors".  What is it referring to?

I hope it's not too mysterious or Harold may feel it as an insult to his 
programming skills!! ;)

Nope, I didn't do anything about it except reminding Harold. But you're 
welcome :)

No because I see doubled cursors ;)

And before you said I was a boy. What make you think that I'm so young? 
I left school several years ago already. Gosh time is going fast.

 From a mail from Harold on February:

"You CAN run in windowed mode (instead of fullscreen) if you run XWin.exe
with the -engine 1 argument and you have Windows in 8 bit color mode:

XWin -engine 1"

And then, there is several thing that makes it hard for me:
   - I don't anything about X (what's pseudocolor?)
   - I don't know anything about DirectDraw (except that it comes with 
DirectX)
   - I don't have much time (bascally only week-ends).

And besides that, I would be more motivated to work on the multiwindow 
mode :)
