I have that line in my .fvwmrc file, that I created about 12 years ago, so I forgot about this detail... Now I've added Style "emacs*" UsePPosition to my .fvwmrc and it works. But it's strange, that only the new emacs needs this option (and only the gtk-version), no other program that I use needs it... Thanks! Peter -- Contact information: http://pmrb.free.fr/contact/
