Similar to GNU screen or tmux, StumpWM uses a key to prefix all commands.  The default prefix is C-t.  To send the prefix key to an application, C-t t can be used.  For example, to open a new tab in a browser or to transpose keys in a shell, C-t t is used.

Emacs built --with-pgtk no longer recognizes C-t when C-t t is sent.  For example, `describe-key' followed by C-t t stays at the prompt waiting for a key to be entered.

This is the case when starting with emacs -Q.  If Emacs is started with emacs -nw -Q, C-t t is recognized.

  To: 52737

Hi,

I'm also able to reproduce this on a FreeBSD 13.0-RELEASE-p5 (amd64) 
host built with same options as the OP. Whichever prefix I chose (C-t, 
or S-e, or C-q) in StumpWM, I can't seem to pass that to GNU Emacs when 
that prefix is active. FTR, me and OP also able to reproduce this 
behaviour successfully in another Gtk 3.x application, gnome-terminal.

Apart from this, I also noticed in my setup mouse wheel stopped working. 
In M-x describe-key, in pgtk version it shows up as <touch-end>, whereas 
in non-pgtk version, it's showing up as <mouse-5>. In latter case, it's 
bound to `mwheel-scroll' where it works as expected.

Thanks!

Does that mean the prefix doesn't work for you in GNOME Terminal either?

That's expected, as the X (without XInput2) and PGTK ports use different
events to report wheel movement.  It should all work though, so please
tell what you see before `touch-end' in the help buffer describing the
key sequence.

Or do you only see `touch-end'? In that case, it looks like a GTK bug I
recall from somewhere.

Thanks.

Yes, I switched New Tab keyboard shortcut in gnome-terminal to C-t, and 
then it stopped working in StumpWM (with prefix = C-t). When I switched 
StumpWM's prefix to S-e, C-t started working in gnome-terminal again 
opening new tabs.

I'll get back on this later today.

In StumpWM, I only see touch-end event.

I also tried in Fluxbox WM, where I see touch-end, or some time 
wheel-down events, and mouse-wheel scrolling seems to work fine. So 
apparently, this one is also restricted to StumpWM.

Thanks!

Try running Emacs like this:

  GDK_CORE_DEVICE_EVENTS=1 path/to/emacs -Q

And see if you see the same problem as well.
Thanks.

With above, mouse-wheel scrolling works fine, and I see <wheel-down> in 
M-x describe-key RET.

Thanks!

It seems that StumpWM is one of the buggy window managers that send
entry events with the mode `XINotifyUngrab' to all XI2 clients when the
wheel moves.

GTK doesn't work around this problem, so there's nothing I can do here.
However, the X port works around this problem, so you can consider using
a regular X build with `--with-xinput2' instead of the PGTK port.

This probably deserves an entry in etc/PROBLEMS.

Sounds good to me. Thanks for diagnosing it.
