Subject: Tests should specify the window position
The window manager twm always asks the user to position a newly created window. Because of this fact the test suite of Prima becomes "interactive" when running under twm. While twm is a quite old-fashioned window manager which is probably rarely used in today's systems, it may be the default window manager in some situations --- for example, it's the default window manager when running a vncserver on freebsd, which is the situation on my smoker machines. Best is to always specify the position of created toplevel windows. As a Tk developer I am in a similar situation; all my Tk test scripts have a line like: $top->geometry('+1+1'); # for twm Regards, Slaven
Hi Slaven, I'm very much aware of twm's interactive behavior, I've used it in the past, but quite frankly, I just ignored it. I'll see what I can do Dmitry
I think I found the issue and fixed it. Could you possibly try the latest Prima from github https://github.com/dk/Prima and see if that works on your setup? Thank you! Dmitry
