tkdnd latest for unix is from 2004, and for windows is from 2003..
although activity on project is of 91%, I see no touched file for 2 to 3
years on their CVS :
http://sourceforge.net/projects/tkdnd
the 'shape' extension you talked about (only available for unix) that is
shipped with tkdnd is version 0.3, but v0.4 is out, look here
(multiplatform) :
http://www.cs.man.ac.uk/~fellowsd/tcl/shapeidx.html#latest
which reminded me of the project I was talking about in my earlier email :
tktrans :
http://www2.cmp.uea.ac.uk/~fuzz/tktrans/default.html
as you can see for yourself.. this looks great!I don't like the API
though, and it seems images need to be purple (rgb = FF00FF) + it only
works on windows...
so I guess hape is better in that case :)
I would also suggest these two links :
http://wiki.tcl.tk/13409 <-- this one explains one of the things I hate
most with shaped windows (+ solution it seems) : wm overrideredirect <--
causes the window to be above all, not stackable behind other apps, no
more iconify, tons of problems...
http://wiki.tcl.tk/6229 <-- Shape page in wiki
gtg now

hehe, yeah, tkdnd, one of the many interesting solutions we found long
time ago and refused to use them because we wanted amsn to stay
'extension-free'.. a simple 'tar -xzvf && ./amsn' process..
I guess now, we should be ready to use that extension!
concerning the shape command.. humm.. I think something else is even
better, I remember seeing an extension that lets you create windows
borderless with any shape you want, simply by providing an image and
mask, and whatever..

"The "*shape*" command can be used in order to change the shape of tk
windows based on transparency information contained in a specified

operation. (Currently functional only under Unix.)"
This sounds interesting :) It could (maybe?) be used apart from DnD to
create windows with rounded corners if we do wm override redirect. Just
a thought :)
