I don't think one exists. You could check which process is running, but that would be so web 1.0 (think javascript) it makes me sick just to think about it. A better alternative could be to code with the extended WM hints (see http://standards.freedesktop.org/wm-spec/wm-spec-latest.html ), that should cover many needs. As with the web, (this might be something you already know, I apologise in that case), try to code to functionality, not names. Check if the WM can do what you want, not its name or version HTH -- Saludos Adriano -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
