First, I'd like to voice a minor complaint about fvwm.org:
I definitely appreciate the software patent protest (and certainly hope
Europe doesn't end up in the same terrible mess the US currently has),
but the site code does not remember whether you've gone past the
introductory "page closed" page. This isn't a big deal for most of the
pages, but it breaks the screenshots page (can't advance past the first
group of screenshots unless you do so manually) as well as the themes
(theme is lost when the "page closed" intro is displayed.)
Secondly, I have a question:
Is it possible to have FvwmIconMan group windows by their class? While
I'd ideally like to start doing this (vs. normal behavior) when there
are more than X entries to be drawn, I wouldn't mind doing it all the
time. (I'm using 2.5 from CVS.)
I'm thinking that something along these lines might be possible,
although I'm uncertain after a quick read of the manual: a 'main'
IconMan could show each distinct class name, and then a transient
FvwmIconMan could be spawned from a mouse binding. While spawning the
transient FvwmIconMan is easy enough to figure out, I don't see any
obvious way to show only distinct classes in the main icon manager.
If anyone has any suggestions or ideas, please let me know--I may make a
patch to add this behavior if it's not currently possible.
Thanks,
