Description

Created attachment 89115 Patch for twm to adjust screen size dynamically

I use twm on a laptop, and I set it up to use the Xrandr extension to handle switching displays when I attach or remove an external monitor. Unfortunately, this has always required restarting twm for it to recognize the new screen dimensions.

I wrote this patch so that twm will receive the notification of the change and adjust it's notion of the screen size.
