The menu with fonts is now tied to Ctrl<Btn2Down> using the dec-u-serve script I posted earlier. By button 2 I mean the far right mouse button.Some time ago it worked for me this way too. But I probably misconfigured something, because there is no more action on Ctrl-Mousebutton. I have spent several hours in debugging but I cannot find what went wrong. Therefore I am looking for Plan B: another terminal emulator.
You didn't do this did you? https://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/271697/i3-xterm-menu-ctrlmouse-too-small A couple of other useful? links https://blog.hanschen.org/2009/10/13/mouse-shortcuts-with-xbindkeys/ from this link https://www.computerhope.com/unix/uxterm.htmchange your +tb xterm option to -tb so you get the toolbar which will have the menu options.
ah ===The *vtMenu* sets various modes in the VT102 emulation, and is popped up when the CONTROL key and pointer button two are pressed in the VT102 window.
===You aren't in VT102 mode anymore. You have a -t instead of a +t on your command line options. Either that or you have TERM and TERMCAP environment variables set so that you are either in VT220 or some Tektronix mode. The vtMenu will not come up if you are not in VT102 mode.
