Sorry.
I am reduced to using a webmail interface that doesn't provide that option.
I'll press <CR> more frequently.

Yes, I read that more than once, and it appeared to contain nothing pertinent, other than the fact that compositing doesn't work with
-multiwindow, and that there are plans to fix that later. Fine,
I don't think I care about compositing.
Although I have /usr/bin/X11R6 in my PATH, /usr/bin is before that.
The 'xwinwm' binary is still dated 2004. Reinstalling it does not change that.
The only way I can interpret your valued (although somewhat laconic) input
is as a suggestion to not to use Compositing.
So I use "-extension Composite" when starting the X server, and try creating an xorg.conf file with:
Section "ServerFlags"
Option "AIGLX" "off"
EndSection
Section "Extensions"
Option "Composite" "Disable"
EndSection
Neither of which makes any discernable difference.
So, am I missing something obvious? Being stupid? Please expand further.
