A quick look at the wmctrl source (close_window() func) shows that -c is sending a _NET_CLOSE_WINDOW request (https://specifications.freedesktop.org/wm-spec/wm-spec-latest.html#idm46515148879760) We don't seem to have any support for that. Quick check: it'd probably be in ewmh_atoms.in, to create the atom for the implementing code to use. Also we'd advertise it in _NET_SUPPORTED; see `xprop -root _NET_SUPPORTED` for the list of EWMH stuff we claim to handle. So... it's _possible_, but only if someone implements it 8-} -- Matthew Fuller (MF4839) | fulle...@over-yonder.net Systems/Network Administrator | http://www.over-yonder.net/~fullermd/ On the Internet, nobody can hear you scream.
