Description Carsten Menke 2002-06-21 03:36:08 UTC 
Version: 2002-06-11
compiled --without-gmp

When I use Applications -> Desktop Preferences -> Advanced -> Sawfish -> 
Appearance

And then try to select a font using "Browse" this Module immediatley 
exits.

No way to select a font.

Actually this goes further, Currently I'm using Smaker, today I 
wanted to change "Color to use when drawing Text", same behavior, 
module exits with no changes made
Comment 2 Carsten Menke 2002-06-23 02:46:38 UTC 
The next situation where this happens, (Today checked again using 
Sawfish-2.0, bugs still the same).

If you try to edit "Session-Properties & Startup Programs" and click 
Apply, Sawfish let's the program actually close (well, semi close). 
You see the Icon in the WindowList, but could not restore the 
Program. This doesn't happen with Metacity.

the font selector is hosed in gtk2 sawfish, it gives back pango-style
font descriptions

sawfish cvs now supports Xft fonts, next step is to do something with
the strings coming back from the gtk2 font selector..

Comment 11 John Harper 2002-11-03 11:06:17 UTC 
font selector is mostly hooked up now. Only thing left to do is
support getting XLFD font descriptions from the Pango font name
(getting Xft font descriptions now works)
Comment 12 John Harper 2002-11-04 05:58:39 UTC 
font selector should be working for xlfd now (though I couldn't test
it in this setup, due to weird gtk errors)
