Searching on Mailing list and Update on fvwm2 for Cygwin

["markem" <markem at mail dot ev1 dot net>]

Search Function on web site:

Yesterday I posted a message to the list.  Today I decided to use
the search feature to locate my posting of yesterday.  I typed in
my name "mark manning" and clicked on the search button.  The
search engine only turned up my original "Newbie" posting of some
time ago.  I decided that maybe I should have typed "Mark Manning"
and tried that.  No go.  Actually, trying this on several people's
names turned up that even though I could see the person's name
next to their entry - search refused to locate their messages. 
Ummmmm....any ideas?

Cygwin and fvwm2:

I finished downloading and updating Cygwin.  My original version
was the one I downloaded on August 5th.  I have not had the time
to re-try the compilation of Lesstif (I'm on a 56K modem and it
took almost the entire day to download all of the updates). 
However, I would like to thank whoever it is that worked on the
fvwm2 update.  Under the August 5th release I could not make the
up/down/left/right arrow keys work properly.  By "properly" I mean
that I like to set them so when I hold down the control key and
then type one of them my screen flips to the next screen (3x3
matrix).  In this way I can have several things all going at the
same time.  Well, under the previous version I either had to have
A)ll turned on or just forget being able to do this and having to
use the mouse to select individual screens.

Original Configuration:

Key Left A C Scroll -100 0
Key Right A C Scroll +100 0
etc....

I wound up having:

Key Left RW A Scroll -100 0
etc....

So I could use the feature.

Under the current release (as of 11/11/2002) The original command 
now works properly!  So kudos to whoever fixed it!  :-)

I'll post again after attempting to re-compile Lesstif.  Whether
or not it completes the compilation so everyone will know one way
or the other if that problem was fixed also in the latest
release.  Thanks again guys and gals!  :-)

Mark Manning
