Hi there. In regards to your recent question in OLC:

Interestingly enough, I played with this and couldn't get NoRaiseOnWarp to
work, no matter what I did. Even if I had a .twmrc file that consisted of
NOTHING but a couple of keybindings that did warps, and that command.
I tried reading through the sources, and if I were allowed to charge you for
these services, you can be sure I would throw in the cost of the Advil I had
to take as a result. It DOES seem to be wanting to do the right thing, as
seen in events.c:
raise_win = ((DragWindow == Tmp_win->frame && !Scr->NoRaiseMove)
? Tmp_win : NULL);
but further tracing of this (for about half an hour) was just painful.
You probably want to ask in the vtwm discuss meeting (on MENELAUS,
/usr/spool/discuss/vtwm). Marc reads it constantly, and if anyone would
know, he would.
Please re-enter OLC when you return, and let us know if you have any other
questions. However, if you feel your question has been answered
satisfactorily, please type `done' from the OLC prompt, so we can clean
out our queues for other users. Your question will automatically be
marked resolved if you have logged in and out three times without
responding. Thanks, and thank you for using OLC!
