For the lazy ;) xwit can be found at:
http://www.ensta.fr/internet/unix/misc/xwit.html
(is that the main page?  it's ftp link is broken)
and downloaded from:
http://ftp.debian.org/debian/dists/potato/main/source/x11/xwit_3.4.orig.tar.gz


Btw, is there a digest version of this mailing list?

 There is a package which is called 'xwit' from which you can control
 tons of wierd things in XWindows.  Focus/iconify/scroll-up windows
 by name (or class?), and control the mouse pointer amongst other
 things.
 Installed the package and added the following to my .bbkeysrc

 KeyToGrab(Up), WithModifier(shift+control), WithAction(ExecCommand),
 DoThis(xwit -rwarp 0 -10)
 KeyToGrab(Down), WithModifier(shift+control), WithAction(ExecCommand),
 DoThis(xwit -rwarp 0 10)
 KeyToGrab(Left), WithModifier(shift+control), WithAction(ExecCommand),
 DoThis(xwit -rwarp -10 0)
 KeyToGrab(Right), WithModifier(shift+control), WithAction(ExecCommand),
 DoThis(xwit -rwarp 10 0)

 Now Shift+Control+Up moves the cursor 10 pixels up the screen.  Yay!

 xwit and bbkeys make a deadly combination!

 Steve
