 Is it possible to add "Always on Top" to the options in linux?  The xteddy
 code uses this to keep the window on top:

 if ((report.xvisibility.state == VisibilityFullyObscured)

Ugh.  Please don't implement it like that.  Imagine two such apps
overlapping.

I have freeamp set to be always on top using "window matching" in
Sawmill.  Most WMs allow you to specify keep-on-top for selected
windows.  Some WMs also support window hints for this from the
application.

  Hi There,
  I am not that experience in programming in
  linux environment so please pardon me with basic question.
  
  1) What debugger is used by the freeamp developers (linux)?.
 
 I use gdb.  It works most of the time, but freeamp is complex enough and has
 enough threads going on that gdb has an annoying tendency to segfault when
 freeamp does..  makes it fun to debug =)

Ah.  Do you have any hints for working around that?  Everytime I try to
debug a segfault gdb segfaults.
