That bug is against gnome-terminal and (one of) my problem is with gnome-terminal, so I guess it makes sense :-) But it looks like "foreign" applications (especially java ones, which are always foreign) will have to be updated to behave nicely within gnome-shell. I don't see a java API coming for this anytime soon (I mean, not an officially supported one, hacks already exists). Good integration in OSX already required a lot of specific extra work, the good news seems to be that gnome seems less difficult to support :) After some further tests, the "--class" switch works for google-chrome but not for firefox or gnome-terminal Epiphany does a great job when creating web applications, but also seems to ignores the manually specified --class switch Best regards. -- Aurélien Naldi _______________________________________________ gnome-shell-list mailing list [email protected] http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gnome-shell-list
