Appicon for wp8 under WindowMaker and Listserv Question....

1999-01-07 Thread Evan Van Dyke
Well, two questions here:
First:  How do I dock the appicon that wp8 shows under WindowMaker? 
Just dragging it to
the Docked section doesn't work.  :

Second:  Is there an easy way to get a mailing list set up?  I've done
it using aliases,
 under sendmail but if you do it that way, replying to the message goes
to the sender, 
not the list.  Or is there a way to fix that?

Thanks in advance.

Well, dragging the appicon to the dock or clipboard does work
for me, under slink (wmaker 0.20.3-1)... Here's what doing so 
puts in my ~/GNUstep/Defaults/WMState:

 {
   Command =  /home/dcoe/Wordperfect/WP8/wpbin/xwp;
   Name = xwp.XWp;
   AutoLaunch = No;
   Forced = No;
   BuggyApplication = No;
   Position = -1,1;
   DropCommand =  /home/dcoe/Wordperfect/WP8/wpbin/xwp %d;
 }

and in my ~/GNUstep/Defaults/WMWindowAttributes:

 xwp.XWp = {Icon = /home/dcoe/GNUstep/.AppInfo/WindowMaker/xwp.XWp.xpm;};

... maybe you can edit the above to match your specifics and try
inserting them manually.

majordomo and mailman are debian packages that do mailing lists well;
there may be others but I haven't used them.  Majordomo is much
older and probably more solid, and is written in perl; mailman is
more modern, web-based, and written in python.  I switched from
majordomo to mailman because i'm more comfortable with python
than perl, but that's just me; you could try them both and make
your own decision (and, as I said, there may be others as well).

First question:
Run WP8, then right click on the icon that you can't dock. Check
Emulate App Icon That should get you a dockable icon. You might also
have to set the icon. I've got WP8 docked right now.

Second question: 
Both MajorDomo and SmartList are popular. I believe debian-* uses
Smartlist. I'm not sure about maintainability, but I'm interested in
what others have to say, because I may start a mailing list in the near
future. Has anyone linked a mailing list to a mysql database before?

When you run xwp, 2 appicons show up.  Make sure you dock the right one.
Right click on the icon and select Settings.  Make sure that xwp is
listed as the application.  If you dock the wrong appicon, then nothing is
listed in the Application field.  I had to modify the contents of the
Application field to specify the absolute path to the xwp executable.
That was just because I had it installed in /usr/local/corel, which
doesn't show up in Dock's path (speaking of which, does anybody happen to
know where Dock gets its PATH value from?).  Aside from that little
detail, docking WP8 was just like docking any other app.

I can't help you with your second question; sorry.
