Add the ;; following line to your .emacs: ;; ;; (require 'balloon-help) ;; ;; For 19.12 users: ;; If you are using fvwm, [tv]twm or ol[v]wm, you can also add ;; the following lines to various configuration file to use ;; minimal decorations on the balloon help frames. ;; ;; In .emacs: ;; (setq balloon-help-frame-name "balloon-help") ;; ;; For ol[v]wm use this in .Xdefaults: ;; olvwm.NoDecor: balloon-help ;; or ;; olwm.MinimalDecor: balloon-help ;; ;; For fvvm use this in your .fvwmrc: ;; NoTitle balloon-help ;; or ;; Style "balloon-help" NoTitle, NoHandles, BorderWidth 0 ;; ;; For twm use this in your .twmrc: ;; NoTitle { "balloon-help" } ;; ;; Under 19.13 and later versions the balloon-help frame uses a ;; transient window that is not normally decorated by window ;; managers. So the window manager directives should not be ;; needed for XEmacs 19.13 and beyond. (provide 'balloon-help) (defvar balloon-help-version "1.04" "Version string for Balloon Help.")
