UWM on the RT responds incorrectly to requests for canceling a window
manager operation. For example, META-RIGHT-MOUSE to move a window, then
attempt to cancel the operation by clicking another mouse button. On
the VAX, this works -- the window manager operation does not take place.
On the RT, however, the window manager operation takes place -- for
example, attempting to move the window, then clicking another button
causes the window manager operation to take place immediately (dumping
the window at the current mouse location).
-------------------------------------------------
On the RT in the consultant's office, the uwm man page is zero length,
although packs are standard:

Also, I think that this is a known bug, but here it is anyway...
Double-click and triple-clicking the mouse do not do word and line
cutting in X on the RT. I don't know if this is an X problem or an
RT problem, or a combination...
