If I understand you correctly, you want a key binding that toggles between XMMS and whatever window you're working in. Try this:

DestroyFunc ShowXmms
AddToFunc ShowXmms
+ I Pick SetEnv WID $[w.id]
+ I All (XMMS*) Iconify False
+ I Next (XMMS_Playlist) WarpToWindow 50 50

DestroyFunc HideXmms
AddToFunc HideXmms
+ I All (XMMS*) Iconify True
+ I WindowId $[WID] WarpToWindow 50 50

DestroyFunc XmmsToggle
AddToFunc XmmsToggle
+ I     Current (xmms) HideXmms
+ I     TestRc (!Match) ShowXmms

Key S A M ToggleXmms

BTW, I keep my xmms swallowed in a buttons bar, which is normally hidden but raised when my pointer hits the west edge of the screen. The only complaint I have about my method is that if I do a restart of fvwm and xmms is playing, I have to stop it to get it swallowed again.

Hi Thank you very much for your reply!

How would I bind this to a key binding ??

My main problem was making a conditional function binding that would Toggle
the status..

I find it very difficult (well impossible for now:-) to make a function
that would bind to one keybinding like I have now (Alt + S), store a window
id (if any) and restore the mouse after i toggle.

The preprocessor stuff is new to me though although i have read somewhere
 that m4 and cpp are possible.. would this be usefull to reduce startup
time ??

Thnx
Mark
