Er. I'm not sure. I guess you could just check stuff in if your CVS is
working. Or maybe we could try and use the patch manager.

Does your config stuff cope with the '+click' stuff. The '+' means pass
this event through to the client (replay it). Click throughs work for
me, so that might be it.

Hmm. That's really odd. What version of Perl do you have? It works for
me, but I'm using 5.6 so the MakeMaker might be a bit broken somehow.

I still think native perl would be nicer :-) Simple enough format for
users to learn, they don't need to know perl, since it's fairly
intuitive :-

$RootMenu = [ 'XTerm' => 'exec xterm',
	      'XEmacs' => 'exec xemacs',
	      'Graphics' => [ 'Gimp' => 'exec gimp',
			      'xv' => 'exec xv' ] ];

$Fonts = [ 'title' => 'lucidasans-14',
           'title_focus' => 'lucidasans-bold-14' ];

$Colors = [ 'frame' => 'grey75',
	    'frame_focus' => 'white' ];

Have fun,
