Works like a charm, thanks a lot ;)

Lua isn't my cup of tea... but python or C will do.

I'd like to ask two final questions that bug me, and then stop
straining your patience (;

How do I configure edge-flip only to happen when I drag a window?
I can enable to do this at the workspace-settings, but when I remove
the edge settings at "input" it won't work with or without a window.
(Sorry if this is a bit ugly to read, my system is german so I don't
have the english names for the settings.)

Second, can I more fine-contol the menu?
On e16 all the window anager and configuration stuff is in the menu
that comes up when I right-click the desktop, while I could configure
the left-click menu freely. If possible, I'd like to have my
applications and the logout entries on left-click, and nothing else.


Thanks in advance and my best regards,
Daniel
