Thot bug reports

I mentioned that the key bindings set by the window manager were
destroyed when thot was opened and closed. You seem to know about
that. Let me add that I am using the XF86 Project Inc server release
3120.

I have noticed the following problems as well.

In the main thot window when "Environment\Schema directories" menu is
choosen there are three paths given /usr/local/thot/schemas and two
more with this beginning and "OPERA" and "GENIE" added to the end. If
I select the last two paths with the mouse and delete them and
"confirm" then thot quits with the message

Irrecoverable error***Modified documents, if any, will be
stored in .SAV file

Using fvwm with the click to focus option: After thot is closed
another window cannot be choosen by clicking inside it. It must be
brought forward first. The normal behaviour for "click to focus" is
that clicking focus the window and brings if forward.

There is no vertical line to indicate where objects will next appear.

I am using two versions on two different machines:

The ELF version with kernel version 1.3.35 and the a.out version with
kernel 1.2.3. On the latter the backspace key doesn't erase text
while typing in a window although it does on the former.

One machine is a notebook with a 640x480 resolution. The windows for
Vue_Unique and search are too large for this screen. The graphics
window and the colour icon are off the screen altogether. There
doesn't seem to be parameters for controlling these things. The
program editres doesn't seem to be able to get the widget tree from a
thot window.
