Dr Mike ------------------------- April 21, 1998 I started to work on this but I'm getting dragged into some other problems, so I wanted to get this out so others could work on it... The idea is as follows: run the panel first run fvwm have fvwm load the winlist_applet The winlist_applet will use a pipe from fvwm to listen to messages fvwm creates when it does window ops. The idea is to have buttons on the panel which correspond to top level windows (ala win95 taskbar). If you build the testwinlist.c and run it as a module from fvwm, it will list these messages. I couldn't get the winlist_applet to work - it seems I would setup the gdk_input_add() and never would get anything back from fvwm. Email me if you want to work on this and need more info. This would be VERY USEFUL for the panel.
