Getting applications to load in particular workspaces [Was: Re: window list skip/hide

["Larry W. Virden" <lvirden cas org>]

The best I can find related to getting windows to load in a workspace is
devilspie's DevilsPieActionSetWorkspace action.  This forces applications
to end up in particular workspaces.

I guess I am astounded/shocked/bewildered that metacity (at least the
version in Sun's GNOME 2.0 distribution) provides workspaces but no way
to get applications to start up in particular workspaces... is this a
bug, or a situation where no one has had time to provide that
functionality, or just something that no one else needs?

Anyways, I have not seen any tools to get applications to follow you
as you move to another workspace.  You can pin the application so it
is available on all workspaces...
