[dev] rule for floating gnuplot window

2009-10-02 Thread stanio
Hi, I can't figure out how to automatically make a gnuplot window float. Here is what xprop says about it: WM_STATE(WM_STATE): window state: Normal icon window: 0x0 WM_NAME(STRING) = "Gnuplot" WM_ICON_NAME(STRING) = "gplt"

[dev] Trouble building wmii on cygwin

Hello folks, firstly, let me say that after 15 years of a love-hate relationship with fvwm I think that wmii finally is what I've been looking for. 50% of what I do I do in terminal windows, and the rest are X programs. So half the time I open xterms only to type X program names. Most of the time

[dev][wmii] Problem in config.mk

Hi all,    I was trying to build wmii from the latest alfa (wmii 3.9a2) following the README instructions and found a small problem. After running 'make config' I noticed that in the file 'config.mk' the variable INCX11 that is correctly initialized with: INCX11 = $$(pkg-config --cflags $(X11PA

Another problem. After the config/compile/install process went well, I restarted gdm and logged in into wmii. Unfortunately I only see the bottom bar white without any string and I can't do anything... help Maybe someone else had the same issue but I can't google it. Thanks -- Marco Rucci On Fri

[dev] [wmii] Resizing the efective area

2009-10-02 Thread Juan Pablo Aroztegi
I've seen that in the current Hg tip (3c5a74149fb8) you can resize the effective area wmii uses in the default mode (tiling), by dragging the borders using the column separators. As an example here's an screenshot where I have reduced the area from both the right and left sides: http://img405.image

dmenu should bring dmenu_run with it which is a short sh-wrapper around dmenu which feeds dmenu with $PATH. dmenu_run works fine here and everywhere else I tried it. On Fri, Oct 02, 2009 at 08:58:57PM +0200, Robert Latest wrote: > Hey, swm's another great discovery! Configuration in source code --
