RE: alt-tab: client window receives tab / pressing both shift-keys = caps-lock

["Pille Geert (bkarnd)" <geert dot pille at vandemoortele dot com>]

YES SIR,

couldn't wait, so I went home during the midday-break to fetch it, and
indeed, both problems have mysteriously disappeared.

Thank you, (and Boy Wonder Jehan, if I followed the mailings correctly).

What a pity, do we now have a product that is perfect?

Ah, I know something.  Maybe Jehan, in his youthful enthousiasm, could
provide us with pseudocolor without going fullscreen?  Maybe he likes a
little challenge?  It might keep him from worrying about seeing multiple
cursors?

;-) (if that wasn't obvious)

Gerard,

Please try the Test 56 release or the XFree86-xserv-4.2.0-5 pre-release
(they are the same):
http://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin-xfree/2002-06/msg00072.html

Please report to the mailing list whether the bug is still present or not.

Thanks,

Harold
