The explanation given near "elvisvi.html#obra" is not correct
and the correct explanation is given near
"elvisopt.html#tweaksection".

To get the behaviour you are looking for
:set tweaksection=off

I will fix the documentation to indicate this in the next (and my
first as maintainer!) upload of elvis.

Meanwhile, if you feel (after reading Steve Kirkendall's explanation
of why he introduced "tweaksection") that the option  should be off by
default then please feel free to write a follow-up indicating this.

Regards,

Bug#306209: Elvis --- Safe under any WM? :)

2006-01-05 Thread Kapil Hari Paranjape
tag 306209 unreproducible moreinfo
thanks

Elvis (X11 version) seems to be stable upon switching virtual desks under
different window managers.

I think the bug may have to do with the window manager the submitter was
using. I assumed this was the default KDE window manager in my previous
post to this bug report (though even that was stable).

In any case I have not been able to reproduce this behaviour and
cannot take any follow-up action without further input from the
submitter.

Regards,

Kapil.

Bug#290689: elvis: Just to make sure I understand ...

2006-01-05 Thread Kapil Hari Paranjape
Hello,

Quoting from "howto.html":

Indicate when Elvis owns the current X11 selection
The cursor can be configured to have a special color
whenever Elvis owns the current selection.

There are two different selections which need to be distinguished.

One is the selection of text by elvis.
In gui mode this is indicated by suitable
highlighting.

The other is what forms the "selection" for X11.
This could be within the elvis window or outside.

Only the second type of selection decides what color the cursor takes.
After the command "color cursor color1 on color2":

Whenever the X11 selection lies outside the elvis window, the cursor
takes on color1.

Whenever the X11 selection lies within the elvis window, the cursor
takes on color2.

I hope this explanation is satisfactory and that I can close this
bug.

Regards,

Kapil.

Bug#346175: don't hardcode netscape

2006-01-05 Thread Drew Parsons
Package: vrweb
Version: 1.5-13
Severity: normal

Currently vrweb hardcodes netscape as the Help utility, so help is therefore
not available.  README.Debian talks about the problem, saying mosaic is the
only alternative.  But that was in 1999, surely we can do better in 2006!

Would it help to simply hard code "x-www-browser" instead of "netscape" in
the source code?
