...that's maybe not already answered in obvious fashion somewhere. :)
I have an FvwmForm dialog "RunCommand", which just offers a field to
specify and run a command. It works fine, but I'd like to limit it to
one instance only. How can I make it basically "application modal"? Is
there a way to check to see if it's already up and if so, abort?
I've tried *RunCommandGrabServer, which does indeed stop everything
else, but it allows more RunCommands (I have it assigned to Alt+F2).
Also, for example, if I press Alt+Tab while it's up, nothing happens.
However when I either run or cancel it, the windowlist shows up. This
may be unavoidable and is no biggie.
Is there a way to maybe set a flag variable and check for its existance
prior to running? If so, maybe a generic "only once" function could be
written. In a shell script, C, etc., I could do this, but I'm not sure
how with fvwm.
I'm running 2.4.6, if it makes any difference.
Thanks.
