Somewhat related question... I notice that some of
my applications,
though launched from eap files in my ibar, do not show
their
eap-respective icons in their upper-left corner, their
listing in
alt-tab or middle-click-on-desktop, their shadow form
in the pager, etc.
As best I can tell, it seems to have something to
do with the Window
Class option when editing the eap file. Some were
blank, most were
guesses when I was making the eap, etc. Is there any
info on that
option (and the other options in e_util_eapp_edit)
that would explain
what it means and what I need to put there for any
given application in
order to fix the aforementioned icon problem?
you're right, it's class-related. look at vim. if you run gvim,
the class is Gvim; if you run vim and issue a :gui command, it's Vim.
in that case, you'd need to have two .EAP files, one for each class,
both with the same icon, for it to show up correctly regardless of
invocation method.
your best bet is to launch your app, right-click the upper left
corner and select Create icon. that will (should) have the class
already populated. it will use the class name to save the .EAP file,
so you may end up with "mail:3pane.eap" and "navigator:browser.eap" or
other weird names.
you can use enlightenment_eapp to modify the settings from the
command line. it operates similarly to enlightenment_remote.
