I find the idea interesting, nad maybe I've tried something similar in the past, by I can't remember. But there is an odd script on my disk that may help you (see attachment). The most difficult part of this is to find a natural way to say in *which* direction you want to resize the window. Then it should be not too difficult to issue commands to change the size by one character or ten pixels; the resizemove command has syntax to support this. e.g. "resize keep w+1c". Normally you would use the gravity of a window to determine the direction in which it grows. Ciao Dominik ^_^ ^_^ -- Dominik Vogt
