Embedding Flit

<< < (2/3) > >>

curaga:
There just might be. I think flwm should honor the X calls to ignore the wm, even if it doesn't use the netwm hints.

I'm not 100% sure, but you could have a test: try flnotify.tcz. It shouldn't show in the wm list, should be on top, and sticky. Though, even if it works, the method I used causes all three effects, I'm not sure if flit is wanted always on top.

Hi curaga,

 I installed flnotify.tcz. I am a little embarrassed to admit that I have no idea what flnotify does. I did get it to open up a window by typing flnotify -t into a terminal, and yes flwm does ignore it. I think this is exactly how I would like flit to behave. Is this possible? Thanks for your help.

curaga:
flnotify "Just saying hi"

flnotify -bg black -fg lightgreen -c "Your battery is about to be empty"


Yeah, it's a rather small change. I'll let Mike handle that though. Check out the goOnTop function in flnotify sources.
You probably won't need the pixmap things there, only the override.

I guess it could be turned on with an option as well, if people don't want it always on top.

aplannan:
Ok, is the source for flnotify available, and if so where? Thanks again

curaga:
It's at 2.x/tcz/src/flnotify-0.8.1.tgz at any mirror.

Though, now that I tested it myself, under flwm it seems to grab the mouse and show in the window list. I mainly use jwm.
