When I start xterm from the menu or from the shelf, ctrl-c does nothing.
When I start it from a pterm, it works as expected. I’d rather not start
from a pterm every time - what can I do?
Thanks,
Hans
it’s a bug in “shelf” or maybe in the qnx c lib.
we have the same problem with some windows managers on xfree86
(http://www.sf.net/projects/openqnx). other window managers
work fine. for those problem window managers, ctrl-c in xterm
won’t work if it is started from the “menu”. the problem only
happens for qnx and we have to work around it. ..
If “shelf” is an open source application, we can probably do
the same thing?

Looks like I spoke too soon. Your problem is apparently fixed
in qnx 6.2.1. I just tried it with “xterm”. and ctrl-c works fine.
If you are already on 6.2.1, you might want to try the new
xfree86 4.3 from www.sf.net/projects/openqnx since that’s the
one I just tested.
good luck.

Hmm, it works now. Running 6.2.1, but not XFree86 4.3.
Thanks,
