Trying to use sawfish again, after some holiday abroad in openbox land
:-)
I start my X with xdm, and I run xconsole from Xsetup:
#!/bin/sh
#
# $Id$
#
# This script is run as root before showing login widget.
#xsetroot -solid rgb:8/8/8
hsetroot -tile /usr/local/share/sky-1280x1024.jpg
xconsole -geometry +0-0 -notify -verbose -exitOnFail &
The xconsole instance persists into my session. I had this setup with
openbox and it works flawlessly. It almost works with sawfish too,
_except_ that the xconsole window gets iconified. I have no idea why
the behavior is different from openbox, but I see this:
itz matica:~$ xprop -name xconsole
_WIN_AREA(CARDINAL) = 0, 0
_NET_WM_DESKTOP(CARDINAL) = 4294967295
WM_STATE(WM_STATE):
window state: Normal
icon window: 0x0
_WIN_STATE(CARDINAL) = 1
_NET_WM_STATE(ATOM) =
WM_PROTOCOLS(ATOM): protocols WM_DELETE_WINDOW
WM_CLIENT_LEADER(WINDOW): window id # 0xa00011
WM_LOCALE_NAME(STRING) = "C"
WM_CLASS(STRING) = "xconsole", "XConsole"
WM_HINTS(WM_HINTS):
Client accepts input or input focus: True
Initial state is Iconic State.
WM_NORMAL_HINTS(WM_SIZE_HINTS):
user specified location: 0, 952
program specified size: 400 by 70
window gravity: SouthWest
WM_CLIENT_MACHINE(STRING) = "matica"
WM_COMMAND(STRING) = { "xconsole", "-geometry", "+0-0", "-notify", "-verbose", "-exitOnFail" }
WM_ICON_NAME(STRING) = "xconsole"
WM_NAME(STRING) = "xconsole"
Note the value of WM_HINTS. I don't know how it gets so - I checked
xconsole source and it doesn't seem to do anything special about
WM_HINTS. But it is that way even with openbox, so this is not really
sawfish's fault I guess, it does what it is told to do.
2 more data points:
when I start another client, such as xloadimage, from Xsetup, it doesn't
behave like this - it's decorated normally.
I tried to put this in .sawfishrc, it doesn't change anything:
(map-windows uniconify-window)
