prevent alt+space from bringing up system menu [2]
prevent alt+space from bringing up system menu
Thursday, August 23, 2007 7:26 AM - Pete Lee
I have been evaluating xmanager + xshell to replace xming and securecrt. The latter have annoying copy/paste issues between them.
So far I have been happy except for one issue. I am running a remote emacs, and when I press Alt+space, it is opening the system menu for the window instead of being passed to emacs.
Is there anyway to force xmanager to ignore alt-space and simply pass it to the application?
Thanks.
