Re: [e-users] E0.16.6 icon question.
Bradley Reed wrote: Hello all, Some programs when they are iconified show up in the Iconbox with a screen snapshot (such as Mozillla). Some show up with an icon (such as Sylpheed). Others iconify but are completely invisible and I need to use eesh to un-iconify them. (I notice this with Nethack v3.4.3) Is it possible to make enlightenment use an icon for nethack? or take a screenshot even? What files would I need to edit? What apps in particular do this ?? Out of the box, E's default is to use either a screenshot of the app window or an icon that ships with E. I've never seen it display NO icon. Do you, by chance, have a 2nd iconbox possibly under a window that the app is going to ?? When you iconify a window, they seem to go to the closest iconbox. You could also just try to manually specify the icon to use for these (bad ?) apps. In the E install directory, likely /usr/local/enlightenment (if compiled from source) or /usr/share/enlightenment (if a package install), look for 'icondefs.cfg'. It's fairly easy to understand. To determine the value to use for the windowmatch, right-click the app, select Remember... and note the name and title that's listed. Use one of those, though I'm not sure which is the right one. Save the file, iconify a window, and see if it works. You don't have to restart E for the change to take effect. Hall --- This SF.net email is sponsored by: IBM Linux Tutorials.

This stops the epplets from reloading automatically, so you put them in your .xsession/.xinitrc and robert's your father's brother. Ahhh, it seems you left out a key thing from your original post, that is, assuming you're running E as your window manager. If so, you do NOT launch epplets from your .xsession or .xinitrc file. epplets will automatically be set up to re-start with E each time WITHOUT YOU HAVING TO DO ANYTHING. The reason for this --disable-auto-respawn, or one of the reasons, was because Gnome users were having both Gnome *and* E remember what apps were to be re-started, hence people getting multiple instances of apps. Why ?? Because Gnome restarts them and E restarts them. Let us know how soon your problem comes back. :-) Hall --- This SF.net email is sponsored by: SF.net Giveback Program.

Argh This is not the first time this question has come up...and it's not the first time someone has started talking about $TERM. It's NOT $TERM. It's $LANG. Or more specifically, the fact that /etc/sysconfig/i18n on RedHat sets the default locale to UTF-8. I do apologize for that. It's the 2nd time I've said it, in fact. :-) I recall the responses correcting me that it's a $LANG issue, not a $TERM one, but since it didn't affect me and it was months ago (it seems), I've forgotten. Maybe you should put as a FAQ on the Eterm website that Eterm does not support UTF-8. I've also been bitten by that when trying to get it working. That's certainly a good idea !

Sorry if this is a redundant question, but I did google around for a bit with no luck. Using E 0.16.5, does anybody know how to reload the images stored in my backgrounds directory without restarting E? I'm not sure what the Pre-scan bgs button does on the desktop background configuration page does, but it doesn't seem to do what I am looking for.

[e-users] Iconbox won't stay put
I've positioned my iconbox where I want it and then changed the anchor alignment slider all the way to the right in Iconbox Settings. I also have Automatically resize to fit icons and Hide scrollbar when not needed ENABLED. It usually works fine... When I minimize an app, the iconbox gets bigger by growing to the left as icons get added to the right. Problem is, the iconbox gets shifting to the right a little bit. No big deal normally, but my pager is there and it goes over the top of it a bit. I've NEVER had to use Remember... settings on my pagers or iconboxes before. What I just noticed is that it doesn't move/shift until I de-iconify the last icon/app. If I have say (4) apps iconified and start de-iconifying them, it stays in place properly UNTIL I do the last one. I can move the iconbox way to the left. As I iconfify and de-iconify apps, each time it empties it moves a little more to the right.

Use E's window properties (right-click the app's border, select Remember..., and look at Name, Class, and so on. Those, as I recall, are used by the icondefs file to ID windows.

Re: [e-users] installing using rpm package in RH8.0
Wait, this is RPM that's complaining about the dependency ?? If so, it *must* find a copy of Imlib, installed via RPM and in RPM's database, or it will complain. Since you have Imlib installed by other means, and have setup /etc/ld.so.conf already, use the force option with RPM. Something like rpm --Ivh --nodeps fnlib*.rpm. Note: I haven't used an rpm-based distro in a couple of years, so check that command yourself. Hall At 11:53 AM 3/7/2003 -0800, Adam Rench wrote: I did install Imlib using a tar.gz package.
