On sunos (4.1.3), I'm seeing some "stuff" (I finally am using
multiple workspaces, I started using ctwm because vtwm seemed
to core dump (I've been using ctwm for a year and just learned
about it the other day).
the f.togglestate is "meaningless" in the man page (it needs to
be eleaborated what "state of the Workspace manager" means. What I've
seen (visually) is:
names of each work space
or
a representation of the windows in the workspace
More examples would be very useful and most welcome...the twm/vtwm/ctwm
manpages were always hard to understand, examples are more useful as a
tutorial with the man page just being a reference.
The current workspace is not tagged in the workspace window -- this would
be a big help...
Also, I'm using multiple icon managers...what
I'm doing is:
menu "Icon Managers"
{
"Icon Managers" f.title
"xvi" f.warpto "xvi Icon Manager"
"xman" f.warpto "xman Icon Manager"
"XTerm" f.warpto "XTerm Icon Manager"
"xless" f.warpto "xless Icon Manager"
"postit" f.warpto "PostItNote Icon Manager"
"vtwm" f.warpto "# Icon Manager"
"articles" f.warpto "articles Icon Manager"
"Main iconmgr" f.warptoiconmgr ""
}
IconManagers
{
"XTerm" "=300x5+800+5" 3
"xless" "=300x5+600+3" 2
"xvi" "=300x5-100+120" 2
"xman" "=200x2-80+100" 2
"articles" "=200x3-60+100" 1
# "Twm Door" "=100x3-200+200" 2
"PostItNote" "=300x5-120+120" 2
}
and I'm doing stuff like
:leisner@gnu; type xman
xman is a function
xman ()
{
command xterm -name xman -title "$*" -e man $* &
}
(ie. run man in it own X window with its own menu).
What happens is when I select an iconmanager, I warp to some other workspace
(I want to warp to the selected iconmanager in the same workspace. (it
seems I'm warping into the last workspace).
Also, is there a good way to see what the mapping of your F* keys
are (without looking at the .ctwmrc file???) Some way to get
extensive information about what ctwm wants?
