Hi,
first the good news - I looked at the fswatcher code and did some
cleanup. I
removed it from watching GWorkspace own files, fearing it could cause
some
look - I thought unlikely because those files are in theory for
thumbnails.
Yet worth the try, plus some other minor cleanup which should not
affect
things. Yet I did run GWorkspace for a could of days on my two
workstations
without issues (but sometimes I needed a whole week to develop the
issue!).
You mai want to upgrade.
So I upgraded from your last commit 3 days ago.

I am not fully aware of what you are doing, but I cannot think of it
doing
anything real. The GWorkspace dock is not a "real" dock seen by
WindowMaker
nor it is a window - it is an "area" of the desktop which is
sensitive. This
is why I do not separate it from the main application, but this is
why I
consider it also very "safe" instead of having a separate window
interacting
with other apps and also why it does not need a compositing WM for it
to look
transparent.
Thus, I suppose, if you don't literally stack the two docks on top
and try to
drag something there, there should be no issues.
Well, in the latest layout of AGNoStep C5C I am testing, the only
component of WindowMaker I kept is the 'Fiend' (also called 'Clip'): I
put there all the dockapps and apps docked which content is changing
(wminfo, wmtext, AClock, TimeMon, wmnd, wmudmount) and I reserved the
internal 'Dock' of GWorkspace for my favorites apps...
Now I must use all those several days with the new GWorkspace
upgraded. Wait and see...
Cheers,
Patrick
