ALT/ENTER is now minimizing the window again

bmarkus: What is it supposed to do?  I guess I'm missing out on some history.  flwm has a bunch of compile-time config options, some of which control various keybinding options.  Maybe you provided a patch to disable ALT/ENTER?  I could try to apply the same change to the hacked version of flwm I'm working on.

Mike,

see this thread:

http://forum.tinycorelinux.net/index.php?topic=2901.0

In 2.3.1 Alt/Enter has no special function, passed to the apllication (mc).

The Alt+Enter is my bad. With three versions of flwm on my machine, I forgot to comment out a single line in Hotkeys.C to disable it whilst compiling the latest version. It will be in next cut.

right side and bottom border - resizes
title bar and left border - moves

However, with smart window placement, the max vertical and max horizontal buttons, the need window moving/resizing should be greatly reduced.

I find I rarely do so, whereas the other wm, I was constanly having to move windows around.

I have rebuilt flwm.tcz to disable Alt+Enter iconize function and instead now uses Alt+F1
This will be in the next cut. However, for microcore users you can test it now.

Advanced users may want to extract the flwm binary to preview.

Open Office doesn't load correctly.  I rechecked the extension by reverting to tinycore_2.3RC3 and the extension works fine.   I have it in my /optional folder, loading it with a script: 

[ -f /usr/local/bin/swriter ] || tce-load -i ./oo2.tczl

It appears in the menu, but files aren't installed.    (no /usr/local/bin/swriter, etc. )

oo2.tczl is an original ziofs with an embedded user.tar.gz. User.tar.gz is depreciated.
As Jason has posted elsewhere that he was working converting extensions to the new format, I will defer any action on such until I hear from him.

I will go ahead and fix that extension, convert to squashfs, and upload it tonight.  The others I will upload tomorrow.

EDIT:  116MB - pretty big, I will see it I can upload but may have to wait til tomorrw.

I converted to squash, getting rid of the user.tar.gz; works fine to ram, but looks like it needs a wrapper.  (gotta work......)
