Is it possible to start a X11() device in a minimized state? I have many windows, each with useful data, which clutter the screen. Having each window minimize upon creation would help.
I tried really hard, but couldn't find a way to do this.
Firstly, X11() doesn't handle arbitrary X arguments, so you can't do: X11("-iconify");
Secondly, X11() doesn't bother with X resources, so you can't add "R_X11.iconic: 1" or similar to your Xresources.
If you are using the twm window manager, you might be able to tell it to start X11 windows iconified using the 'StartIconified [{win-list}]' option. It says:
"This is useful for programs that do not support an
-iconic command line option or resource."But these days twm isn't much useful for anything else...
So, perhaps some coding in devX11.c required....
