Greetings. I'm trying to get into using "eesh" although I'm not finding much
discussion of what neat things can be done with it. In my case, I'm trying to
replace the [Maximize] button in my window title bar with an _A_EXEC that runs
a script that uses eesh to resize and move a window to a specific spot on the
desktop.
The reason is that I'm using Nvidia's TwinView feature where the LCD on my
laptop and an externally plugged in projector are mapped as views into
different parts of the same X screen. When I maximize a window now, it gets
spread across both displays, which isn't very useful. So I thought, cool,
eesh will let be cause a window to be placed at the particular spot that makes
it visible on the projector.
However, the script needs to know the 'current' window to manipulate. The
docs for eesh mention you can substitute "current" for the window id, but it
isn't recognized by eesh. Is there some punctuation I need to use here?
I'm using E16 0.16.8.3 under Gentoo Linux.
