Hi there, FVWM fellows...
I just thought of something which could often be useful, and doesn't
seem possible with FVWM currently... Grouping windows.
The idea is that you could create a group and join some windows into
it, maybe also assign a name to it for convenience, especially in
configuration directives... Then you could perform some actions (like
shading, moving, iconifying, sticking, etc.) on all the windows on the
group at once, and maybe choose (maybe per action) that if an action
would be performed on one window in the group, it will be applied to
all of the windows in the group... Maybe even assign styles to entire
groups, etc...
Windows could be grouped in the configuration, and also
perhaps interactively...
I think this could be often useful when working with many windows, if
some are related then it can be logical to group them... Also
especially when using applications which consist of several windows...
I don't yet know the FVWM code too well, so I don't know how hard it
would be to implement it... But it's an idea for a feature which I'd
be happy to have in FVWM...
Regards,
-- Tom
