Re: rootless mode and mousing to other windows
Wilhelm,
Oh yeah, I see your point. I don''t want to start up that discussion
again :)

Right now I use cygwin xfree for terminal emulation, more or less. But it
would be nice to be able to use an X windowmanager instead of Explorer. So
all the applications, even stuff like IE or WinAMP, are managed through
the X window manager.
As I understand it the current efforts with a rootless mode are going in
the other direction, where X apps are managed by Explorer.

Are you referring to just having fvwm available for Cygwin/XFree86 or
are you referring to having the additional feature of
current-window-focus synchronization between fvwm and MS Windows? If
you just want fvwm, it is already available as a Cygwin/XFree86 package
via setup.exe. If you want the later feature, well, then that is what
we are discussing.
