Severity: normal
This is actually a long-standing bug (several years, at least) that I'm
just now reporting... I guess I'm getting more picky as time goes on. :)
When I hold down the Ctrl key and click (either right- or left-) on the
xterm, I'm supposed to get a menu. Instead, what I get is this:
<http://okopnik.freeshell.org/menu/tiny-menu.jpg>
Unless I click on the pixel-wide on the bottom of this "micro-menu",
there's no way to get to the other items. Just to show the extent of
this "clipped" area, I've set 'Secure Keyboard' (i.e., highlighted the
background) and tried it again:
<http://okopnik.freeshell.org/menu/tiny-menu-highlighted.jpg>
Once I _have_ clicked that "microbar", the menu (for that button; each
of the two menus requires the above procedure to become accessible)
appears.

Please let me know if I can help with any troubleshooting or feedback.
