Ben, thank you for your comments! I just finished adding a command line
option ("-dms") to add launch items from the Debian Menu System. (Note that
it only uses DMS entries that specify "needs=x11".)Also, I made changes based on your suggestions. I added a "-right" command line option to swap the button columns. And, I added code to attempt full-screen mode. (I'm not sure this works since I run the Matchbox window manager where every window is full-screen). The AUX button currently unhides Auxlaunch. I'll investigate causing it to also hide Auxlaunch. As always any input is welcome! The top level icons (keyboard activiate, battery level, etc) are displayed by the really cool "openmoko-panel-plugin" (see link below). It is a very helpfull tool. Besides power and GSM status, it shows/hides the keyboard and controls Bluetooth, GPS, and USB. It is essential in Debian, IMHO. I think there's now a Debian package to help install it. - alisid http://projects.openmoko.org/projects/panel-plugin/ On Fri, Oct 17, 2008 at 4:39 PM, Ben <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Hi, > > thx a lot for this nice app, I think I will leave my idesk conf for it. > > Is there a way to : > - use right-hand entry for making a menu switcher > - making defaults sizes when auxlaunch starts (fullscreen-like ?) > - use aux botton for hide/unhide auxlaunch > and how to get your top level icones (gsm info/battery level/etc) > please ? > > > > Le Wed, 15 Oct 2008 20:06:30 -0400, > "Al Iasid" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> a écrit : > > > I created a wiki page with screenshot [1].
