Title: xdotool for x86 8.x TinyCore
Post by: binarydemon on February 23, 2018, 06:55:57 PM

Hi,

I was looking to do some X Window manipulation from command line, and I read FLWM isn't compatible with wmctrl. Seems like xdotool might work, but I see there hasn't been a TCZ since 4.x.

If xdotool isnt compatible with current versions, possibly suggest an alternative? I want to minimize and foreground windows from command line.

Thanks!

You could pm the extension maintainer @Kingdomcome and request an update or try out the extension from tc-4.x with whatever version of tinycore you are using.

Thanks for the advice, the 4.x version of x86 xdotool.tcz appears to be working with the 8.x Tinycore correctly after adding the dependency libXtst.tcz.

thanks for checking - xdotool copied to tc-8.x repo
