Re: Where is X(7) man page, ques about but#2


I like your scrollbar.translations! Works better than interchanging the functions of buttone #2 and #3.

Thanks.

Under cygwin, I installed *ALL* of the xorg-x11-* packages but I am still missing the X(7) man page. Where can I find one?

With xterm, the middle mouse button is essentailly a soft-scroll in that the scroll bars moves with the mouse pointer. I would like to make it mouse button 3 instead but only in xterm. How can I do that in the ..Xdefaults file.

There is a related example in the manpage (for xterm), e.g.,


http://invisible-island.net/xterm/manpage/xterm.html

Some people prefer using the left pointer button for dragging the scrollbar thumb. That can be setup by altering the translations resource, e.g.,
*VT100.scrollbar.translations:#override \n\
<Btn5Down>:StartScroll(Forward) \n\
<Btn1Down>:StartScroll(Continuous) MoveThumb() NotifyThumb() \n\
<Btn4Down>:StartScroll(Backward) \n\
<Btn1Motion>:MoveThumb() NotifyThumb() \n\
<BtnUp>: NotifyScroll(Proportional) EndScroll()
