You nailed it! I removed the extension and the escape sequence worked perfectly :) Since I don't use the tabbed extension all that much, I think I much rather prefer having the ability to dynamically change the window geometry via the command line. > You could try to find the outside window id by walking up from $WINDOWID > (e.g. xwininfo -tree -root), and calling xresizewindow on the X display, but > thats not somehting I would attempt lightly :) Thanks for that tip! I may not use it for this application; but one never knows when it may come in handy :) Thanks very much for resolving my problem, Marc!
