Jordan,
Okay, it looks like I need to do a little more work.
I only fixed the GrRegisterInput() function for the server side,
not for the client side. When I do that, then you're right--
there will be no special cases in flnx based on whether nanox
is directly linked or not. I'll be able to put that together
today or tomorrow. I'll send you folks the respective
patches as you requested.
So, I'll add the equivalent changes in 'client.c'.
Question: since the GrRegisterInput()/GrUnregisterInput() functions
will work the same for both client and server, do you want to code
duplicated in srvmain.c and client.c, or is there some better
place to put shared code?

Actually, the --with-microwinlink was a flnx config option, not
a Microwindows config option. But, making the changes discussed above,
this whole thing goes away anyway.

Ummmm...right now it's a loop, but I'll look at "fixing" that ;^)
