It used to be a lot easier in KDE2. One just needed the "Dock Application Bar" extension to be active, and starting any WindowMaker applet would automatically dock it without creating an extra entry in the taskbar. The KDE3 way is far more complicated and doesn't work cleanly. For e.g., doing $ kstart --skiptaskbar wmCalClock gives me wmCalClock docked correctly, but it also produces an extra empty placeholder window in the dock app. bar. Am I missing an option here? -Andy
