Description
Arnaud Gouder Sep 23 2002 04:05:15 UTC
Somtimes when I get a Micropause, I just want to read some text that's on my screen, without using keyboard or mouse for some seconds. However, the micropause window can be just on top of the text that I want to read. I want: - The window possitioned on a place where NO other windows ar OR - The possibility to move the window a little bit

As discussed (and agreed upon) offline, the proposal to create intelligent break window positioning code does not really make any sense, as in practice there just is no space left on your desktop. So, the new approach to solve this bug is to have the cursor keys move the break window up/left/down/right when pressed.

Code bloat alert.
