So really the wrapper script starts Pro-Engineer just prior to toggling compiz off-on. /Disk1/Binaries/Pro-Engineer/WF5/bin/proe1 & sleep 5 metacity --replace & sleep 1 gtk-window-decorator --replace & sleep 1 compiz --replace gconf & -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
