Greetings.
First off, taking a queue from Maddog Hall, many thanks to the Fvwm
developers. I try other WMs from time to time, and keep coming back.
I'm using v 2.2.5
What I would like to be able to do is bind a key to a function which would
raise my fvwmbuttons. For the sake of having as much usable screen area as
possible, I have it set so that it can be obscured by other windows. (no
autoraise going on, and sometimes I completely obscure it anyway)
Style "FvwmButtons" NoTitle, NoHandles, StaysPut, Sticky, \
CirculateSkip, BorderWidth 0, \
WindowListHit
So, I can warp to it from the window list, or edge-flip and get to it that
way, but I'm hoping for a faster method. But looking through the man page,
the closest I can come to this is `WindowId 0x34567890 Raise' (or warpto),
except that I don't have the window ID. Is there a function I've missed
which will return the window ID so that I can use it in a key binding? Or
maybe a SendToModule command to tell it to raise itself?
I'm starting it up this way:
AddToFunc InitFunction "I" Module FvwmButtons
AddToFunc RestartFunction "I" Module FvwmButtons
I realize that a GetWindowID("string") would suffer from the issue of
possibly matching multiple windows, but I could give FvwmButtons a unique
title at startup, and find it that way, I think.
Advice appreciated.
