And… the quest continues…
To cycle through the X11 windows now I do option-~ instead of command-~ which
is used to cycle through the native macOS windows (within the same app). This
is a very minor pain point so I won’t spend much time on it BUT…
Back in the day, I stuck with motif because that was the first window manager
AIX had and I wrote some motif RC file that mapped key strokes to everything
that you would use a mouse for such as iconify, cycle through windows,
un-iconify, etc etc etc. (As a result, I never used a mouse. It was stuffed
in a dark dusty corner of my desk. And that resulted in me being REALLY bad at
first person shooter games but I’m digressing…)
I think twm(1) has the ability to trigger functions from key strokes just
glancing at the man page but the quartz-wm man page is pretty barren. Does
anyone know if it can be programmed to map key strokes to internal functions
such as iconify, etc? The quartz-wm man page references the twm man page as if
it might be built from it.
Thank you again for your time,
Perry
p.s. I guess X11 is the fortran of window systems. Like a cockroach. It will
always be with us. Forever. (Not dissing it… it is still the only window
system that is platform agnostic and the only windows system that can ship
DISPLAY across the net.)
