Description Michael Jinks 2002-11-21 21:09:39 UTC
I noticed that I got a "no such file" error when using alt-tab to cycle through
windows under sawfish.  A little digging showed that the x-cycle section of
/usr/share/sawfish/1.2/lisp/sawfish/wm/autoload.jl was the only key command
which was defined using the 'string convention rather than (quote string), so I
changed it to match the others and that fixed the problem.  In case it's useful,
here's the diff output from my changed file:

< (autoload-command 'cycle-windows 'sawfish.wm.commands.x-cycle)
< (autoload-command 'cycle-windows-backwards 'sawfish.wm.commands.x-cycle)
< (autoload-command 'cycle-group 'sawfish.wm.commands.x-cycle)
< (autoload-command 'cycle-group-backwards 'sawfish.wm.commands.x-cycle)
< (autoload-command 'cycle-prefix 'sawfish.wm.commands.x-cycle)
< (autoload-command 'cycle-prefix-backwards 'sawfish.wm.commands.x-cycle)
< (autoload-command 'cycle-class 'sawfish.wm.commands.x-cycle)
< (autoload-command 'cycle-class-backwards 'sawfish.wm.commands.x-cycle)
< (autoload-command 'cycle-dock 'sawfish.wm.commands.x-cycle)
< (autoload-command 'cycle-dock-backwards 'sawfish.wm.commands.x-cycle)

Michael,

is this still valid with 1.3?
