I use GNU Emacs 23.2.1 (x86_64-pc-linux-gnu, GTK+ Version 2.20.1) of 2010-12-11 on brahms, modified by Debian. I would like to use the mouse to change window sizes (by clicking and dragging) but I find it particularly difficult. The mouse cursor changes to <-|-> (for example) but dragging it does not seem to "grab". Is there anything I can customize to make dragging windows more friendly? Thanks, Stuart
