Summary: configurable modifier key (resize/lower etc)
Initial Comment:
Blackbox uses Mod1 (Alt) as the modifier key for move,
resize, raise, lower etc. The attached patch makes the
modifier key configurable via the blackbox rc. This
feature was inspired by openbox. The patch is against
blackbox 0.65.0.

Here is an updated patch for 0.70.0, including a man page
update.

Does the patch work with 0.70? If not, could you adapt it?
Applying cleanly to 0.70 naturally increases chances of
being adopted into the official code.

One year later and counting ... and I'm back to download
this patch since I've lost it on my system. This is not a
new feature for blackbox, it just allows configuring an
existing feature.

Well, I think this one is obvious (for the time being),
since this is not adding or removing anything from blackbox,
simply just allowing the modifier key to be changed from Alt
to something else. (Using alt+mouse is already a feature of
blackbox.) I don't even use bbkeys, but would clearly need
to if the mouse actions were moved from bb into bbkeys...
My main motivation for getting this into blackbox is that
openbox 3.x no longer is based on blackbox; it has been
re-written. I was using openbox 2.x because it was blackbox
with a configurable modifier key and some edge snaping
features. I do not wish to use openbox now that it has been
rewritten, so I patched up blackbox to let me change the
modifier key.

I like the idea behind this patch. However, it does raise a
question: Where do we draw the line between features in the
blackbox code and features in bbtools (e.g. bbkeys)?
Personally, I would like to see bbkeys implement mouse
actions as well. That would incorporate the Alt+drag feature
of blackbox.
