[9fans] Acme button 1 working like button 3

[Patrick Higgins]

I am trying out Acme after watching rsc's tour at http://research.swtch.com/acme

So far I have been liking it, but I just hit an issue: mouse button 1
now acts the same as button 3. It was working normally just a few
minutes ago. Other X windows including xev still work normally.

I would appreciate some help in understanding/resolving this.

Thanks!

I'm not a profi in Acme internals but...

Could you try running `visibleclicks=1 acme`, click mouse buttons and
see how libdraw treats them?

Looks like I suffer from this too. Just a minute ago I was unable to
change position in file (in window). Fixed only after pressing and
releasing Alt button. Don't think it's related to KDE because I'm
using wmii.

[Patrick Higgins]

Yes, that was it. My alt key had gotten stuck.

Yes, that was it. My alt key had gotten stuck.

so what must I do to circumvent the problem?
I reckon I should issue some hg command to put some files (from
65969f85ee6c revision?), presumably just src/cmd/devdraw/x11-srv.c,
into the working directory, and then recompile (mk) some subtree of
p9p. What are the relevant commands, please?

Thank you!

There is a bug already
https://bitbucket.org/rsc/plan9port/issue/124/patch-revision-3449-messes-with-keyboard-7
so we can wait for a fix in meantime.

For now you can make a clean clone of specific revision previous to the change:
cd /usr/local
rm -rf plan9
hg clone -r e9cdfa957952 https://bitbucket.org/rsc/plan9port plan9

Or if you want just to checkout the revision in existing tree:
cd /usr/local/plan9
hg checkout -r e9cdfa957952

Hello,

cd /usr/local
rm -rf plan9
hg clone -r e9cdfa957952 https://bitbucket.org/rsc/plan9port plan9
cd /usr/local/plan9
hg checkout -r e9cdfa957952

thanks. This worked.
I thought something like hg revert -r <rev> <file>, followed by some
restricted rebuild
could be sufficient, but this is probably easier.

Thanks!

Hi,
I made a variant of a fix of the problem some time ago.

It seems Russ is very busy and can't review my changes, so the patch can be
applied by hands.

Russ and his wife had a baby, I think he's busy changing diapers
(there was an announcement on golang-dev that he'll be away for a
month).

a baby is proof that no matter how obsessive a coder you are,
you can get even less sleep and not code a wink.
