- Our application has some displays (in a canvas) that can be time consuming.
- Under SunView we were able to use the STOP key and the SIGURG signal
- processing to change a variable. Then we stopped the display generation if that
- variable ever went false.
-
- Well, under xview we can't get SIGURG anymore, so what do we do? I cannot
- seem to get anything to work. I thought I could call notify_dispatch() and
- my event loop would do the right thing (it detects ACTION_STOP fine), but no.
- I have tried using raw X commands like XCheckEventMask, but can get no
- KeyPress events...and many other things.
-
- Has anyone else faced this problem and solved it?
