| "finish pulling the drapes" as in what does that mean?
Sometimes in order to pull the sliding desktops 'shut' I zip back and forth. A
simple keystroke would serve the same utility instead of waving a mouse around
after you've finished your business. I haven't gotten around to ANY of this
stuff yet; just trying to figuring out how to put in a new placement strategem
has been difficult enough--everything I do, no matter how cleverly placed,
always fails to influence it at all. I must be thinking upside down again.
| -> Beautiful utility to that new drag-and-drop stuff.
|
| it's already just been cleaned up.. it works MUCH better now.. :) i
| might release a new snapshot soon...
| yer welcome :) I'm hoping to have E in CVS after 0.14 - and being
| cleaner code I'm hoping people who find bugs might just go and fix them
Dag nasty.
| -> Post Scriptum--sometimes the sliding drapes/windows/whatever effect is
| slightly
| -> ruined by a really hoggish/slow programme not playing "catch up" to E's
| "keep
| -> away"--it looks like some weird effect at first on XFmail, for instance.
|
| hmm not much I can do if the progrma is too slow to keep up.. :) but it

Heh. I just find it funny that with all our video/hardware, the windowing
system itself lends programmes to ignore their programme's priority to
rewrites. Efficient in some ways, inefficient in others.
