Thanks again

It's really important to have a license for a project (because of legal reasons)
and it's way more clear with a license file

Hello!

I'm having some trouble getting xclickroot to work. Here is some background information:

• OS: Arch Linux
• DE: spectrwm
• Package source: aur/xmenu (script located at ~/.local/bin/menu) and aur/xclickroot-git

I start xclickroot-git in ~/.xprofile:

xclickroot -r ~/.local/bin/menu

This setup works in three other of my window managers (awesome, qtile, and xmonad), but not in spectrwm.

In accordance with your advice on Issue #3, I tried to find out if another device was grabbing the mouse, but there was none. As such, after killing xclickroot, I was able to start it again in the terminal, but nothing happened when right-clicking the root window. Would you happen to know why this is, or how I might fix this?

Recently (new machine, new Linux Installation) I noticed strange behaviour when launching subprocesses from code that was itself spawned via xclickroot: Tcl code that used exec was giving me error messages about lost child processes. It appears that ignoring SIGCHLD is inherited by children, which shouldn't happen - as I understand it the call to signal(3) is merely intended to avoid zombie children.

I recommend using the POSIX-compatible way of avoiding to wait by using sigaction(2) with the SA_NOCLDWAIT option (see also: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/40601337/what-is-the-use-of-ignoring-sigchld-signal-with-sigaction2). Replacing the call to signal(3) with

 struct sigaction sa;
 sa.sa_handler = SIG_DFL;
 sa.sa_flags = SA_NOCLDWAIT;
 sigaction(SIGCHLD, &sa, NULL);

seems to work for me.

Thanks a lot for xclickroot, it's a nice piece of software.

Hi, I am trying to run this useful utility, but I see no result.

• Arch Linux
• i3
• nvidia
• aur pkg xclickroot-git

xclickroot -r urxvt.

I like to open xfiles with double left click on desktop.
Could it be possible to add an option for double click launch?
