EXAMPLES:
|
|
---------
|
|

|
|
mwdl
|
|
|
|
Normal X window, non shaped window, send CTRL + ALT + key
|
|
wmdl -w n -s n -c
|
|
|
|
2x2 button grid:
|
|
wmdl -x 2 -y 2
|
|
|
|
2x3 button grid:
|
|
wmdl -x 2 -y 3
|
|
|
|
|
|
NOTES:
|
|
------
|
|
|
|
This pager works by sending synthetic ALT + number key press events to the
|
|
root window. The "-c" command line switch makes the application send
|
|
a CNTRL + ALT + number key which might be of use in another window manager.
|
|
|
|
Because the ALT key may have different key codes on different X servers,
|
|
you can use the -a command line switch to change which meta key is used.
|
|
I doubt anyone will ever have to do this though. The Mod1Mask which is the
|
|
program's default seems to work on most if not all systems.
|
|
|
|
I don't know of any Window Maker hooks for determining things like how
|
|
may workspaces are actually in use. If any one know about this stuff, please
|
|
let me know.
|
|
|
|
It is very easy to change the look of wmcp by editing the colors in the
|
|
pixmap files. Someday we'll add an official 'skins' ability but for now
|
|
just edit the xpm files to change the colors etc.
|
|
|
|
This program is released under the GPL license and has been created by looking
|
|
a lot at the code for wmppp, wmtime, wmload and various other Window Maker
|
|
resources and info on the Web and Usenet.
|
|
|
|
|
|
BTW, the one true enlightened way is "Sloppy Focus."

files by hand.

Add catching Window Maker's events to know how to refresh the pager when
