Hi, is there a way to check when a specific window shows up?
Example: I'm spawning an urxvt with "urxvt -name myname" which spawns an urxvt with "myname" as content of the instance-variable.* Is there a way to execute code upon this window showing up? In this case I know that this will eventually happen, but instead of waiting a certain amount of time and working on this window then (e.g. guessing when it might be there) I'd like to do stuff with this window when it's there. Is there a more or less elegant way? (preferably nothing like "while client not there; search client" as this will be a lot of fun in this one rare situation when the urxvt isn't showing up for whatever reason and I'm completely locked out of my system). Cheers, Manuel *) While the xproperty-way is quite cool and worth keeping it in mind, I finally chose to do it this way as this is less code, less mistakes and thus more easily and more robust to implement. -- To unsubscribe, send mail to [email protected].
