Hi I have problems with shortcuts. When i have rdesktop in fullscreen only VT-switching works (even if -K is given). When i'm in a window -K works but then more shortcuts are captured by window manager then i need. Is there some way to specify an exact list of shortcuts passed to the window manager? I could do some hacking myself if any wise gentleman could show me a good point to start with. Regards Janusz |

You might want to look into XGrabKey() instead. However, that might be tricky, as I think it would entail grabbing every key combination except those that you want the window manager to receive. If that doesn't work (I'm no X guru), you may have to see if you can turn off certain keybinding for your window manager when rdesktop window has the focus. -- Bob Bell <bo...@zk...> ------------------------------------------------------------------------- "It's easy to solve the halting problem with a shotgun. :-)" -- Larry Wall, creator of the Perl programming language |

VT switching works even if keyboard is grabbed by rdesktop. Maybe it is possible to add another shortcut there. Janusz |
