Did you ran a xprop on a started window? I guess it will have a class like "pcmanfm" or so, that you can use to track all windows pcmanfm creates, and a name the represents your current instance. I guess you are starting your clients via a script - and that already knows about the folder to start (as it gives it as argument to pcmanfm-client). So you should be able to extract the portion that is used in the window title and use that for your rule (coupled with class=pcmanfm). Regards, Andre -- Andre Klärner
