Hubbard) Organization: University of California, Berkeley Lines: 19 I think postnews ate my last posting. Here it is again (what I can remember of it, anyway). 1. Has anyone noticed a broken auto-repeat on their Sun since applying patches 71-80? I'm more reluctant to call this a bug in X after #68. 2. I have a pretty good idea why color information isn't available for window background/foreground and border, but it's still a PAIN IN THE ASS. How is one supposed to write an application that adds gadgets to a window with the same color attributes? Is there some way of doing this with colormaps? For example, If a person has a green and red (yeech) window, he'll expect a green/red title bar, no? If the answer to this question is a flat "No", how about telling me how or if this question is going to be addressed? Thanks. Jordan Hubbard dana!jkh@hplabs.hp.com
