Hello.
I think that there has been some discussion about tweaking a bit the
default configuration for sawfish.
I have some suggestions regarding the apps-menu.
The current one looks like this (lisp/wm/menus.jl)
----
(defvar apps-menu
`(("xterm" (system "xterm &"))
("Emacs" (system "emacs &"))
("Netscape" (system "netscape &"))
("The GIMP" (system "gimp &"))
("XFIG" (system "xfig &"))
("GV" (system "gv &"))
("xcalc" (system "xcalc &"))))
-----
Most of the programs are not very useful for most of the people.
My suggestion is to turn it into something similar to this:
------
(defvar apps-menu
`(("_Terminal" (xterm))
("_Web Browser" (system "$BROWSER &"))
("_File Browser" (system "xdg-open ~ &"))
("_Emacs" (system "emacs &"))
("The _GIMP" (system "gimp &"))
("_Soundmixer" (xterm "alsamixer"))
("x_calc" (system "xcalc &"))))
-----
What do you think? Any ideas? Does the $BROWSER thing do the trick in
your computers?
Perhaps the ideal thing would be to have an entry in sawfish-ui,
somehow, to make it be easily customizable.
PS: btw... the usage of the "selfdefined xterm" function in my example
menu seems to be wrong. How was the generic xterm function
implemented? is it a need to require "sawfish.wm.commands.xterm" to
load it?
