<H1>Taming the Window Manager (Unix only)</H1>
<P>
Sometimes the Unix window manager is too attentive and catches key events
before they get to <TT>(X)Emacs</TT>, notably the `ALT arrow' keys. You
either rebind those keys through <a href="installation.html#customization">customization</a>,
or you have to edit the resource file of the window manager to suppress this behavior.
For example, if you use the <EM>fvwm</EM> window manager, then add/edit the
following lines to/in your '.fvwmrc' file:
</P>
<PRE>
# press arrow + control anywhere, and scroll by 1 page
Key Left R C Scroll -100 0
Key Right R C Scroll +100 +0
Key Up R C Scroll +0 -100
Key Down R C Scroll +0 +100
# press arrow + meta key, and scroll by 1/10 of a page
Key Left R M Scroll -10 +0
Key Right R M Scroll +10 +0
Key Up R M Scroll +0 -10
Key Down R M Scroll +0 +10
</PRE>
<P>
A different problem occurs if your X11 system requires the
specification of width and height as options to ghostscript. If the
default size of the ghostscript window is wrong on your system, please
add the option '-g550x720' to the <tt>gs-command</tt> configuration variable.
