I guess that there are -- broadly speaking -- 3 ways of handling this: 1. A programmable window manager 2. Generating arbitrary sequence of events by stuffing the corresponding keys into the window manager using (something like) xrecord 3. Using emacs' own clientserver setup ie emacsclient I have as of now opted for the 3rd option. My setup is as follows: .emacs has the following: (server-start) (defun myserver () (raise-frame) (make-frame-visible) (remember)) gconf-editor->apps->metacity->keybindings->command_1 has the binding: bash -c "wmctrl -a emacs; emacsclient -n -e '(myserver)'" Actually it has bash -c "wmctrl -a emacs-snapshot-gtk; emacsclient.emacs-snapshot -n -e '(myserver)'" because of debian peculiarities with respect to emacs 22. And gconf-editor->apps->metacity->global-keybindings has run_command_1 bound to the keystroke <mod4>e ie Win-e Note that this is not quite satisfactory to me because the raise-frame and the make-frame-visible are both redundant and insufficient. Which is why I need the wmctrl. Which is why I need the bash -c. If anyone finds a way of streamlining this please post it! _______________________________________________ Emacs-orgmode mailing list Remember: use `Reply All' to send replies to the list.
