I appreciate all the feedback from people so quickly on my previous message.
I read Carsten Haitzler's message about creating a library and getting x apps to load it via the LD_PRELOAD environment variable. This sounds like the best option for me. But, I'm not sure how to actually do it. I compiled the library and set my LD_PRELOAD environ variable to its path. Then i ran a copy of xterm and used the code that Marcus Schaefer provided to get the _NET_WM_PID property, but that property wasn't found. I ran xterm under strace and it seems to open the library I put into LD_PRELOAD. Could someone provide some detailed instructions that I could follow? (and possibly code, I haven't used LD_PRELOAD before or done much programming directly w/ Xlib) :) thanx __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo! Finance Tax Center - File online.
