I want to start (say) a copy of lxterminal on Desktop1, two copies of lxterminal on desktop 2 and another copy on desktop 4. The autostart system doesn't seem to allow me to specify different desktops for specific instances of a program. The second link would mean that lxterminal will always start on the *same* desktop, definitely not what I want. A while ago I used to use the fvwm window manager and that had a nice configuration script which, among other things, allowed one to start instances of programs on specific desktops with a very simple and straightforward syntax - even I could do it! Why are such things so difficult nowadays? -- Chris Green -- Lubuntu-users mailing list Lubuntu-users@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/lubuntu-users
