Subject: Re: Bug in CVS Emacs frame positioning under X

My major concern is that the current malfunction has non-deterministic
user-visible effects. Depending of the X event timing, programmatically
positioned frames can end up in one of three places:
It could be that we could solve this by completely reorganizing the
way that code works. The person who wrote it was not the best
programmer, and I then tried to fix it up with just a partial
understanding of how to use Xt. Someone who really knows the right
way to use Xt could perhaps do this right, and then it would work.
Let's continue this discussion just on emacs-devel.
