wmctrl is *probably* your best bet. eg: to get a list of all windows open, and their geometry: $ wmctrl -l -G 0x01200233 0 564 416 577 602 gnuwestlake Terminal - rcresw...@gnuwestlake: ~/src/xuggler-2.0 0x01800001 0 233 36 854 689 gnuwestlake myprint-version.PDF - Okular 0x00e00049 0 1299 33 1144 920 gnuwestlake Inbox for [email protected] - Thunderbird ..... wmctrl will also let you close/move/resize/etc windows, but it's capabilities are highly dependent on your windowmanager. (It can ask the WM to do things, but the WM can ignore it.) In ubuntu, the wmctrl is in the wmctrl package. --Rogan > > I've got a Windows app that I'm trying to run under Wine, and it seems > to have lost track of where it's windows are.
