Hi, I've been having this issue for a while now. If i attempt to run terminology from Enlightenment's applications menu, it does not open a new terminal. Instead it will simply put the focus on an existing terminology window. If i happen to attempt to open a new terminology window on another virtual desktop, it also moves me to the desktop where that window happens to be. And it doesn't even open a new tab in that window. Every once in a while, though, i get the expected behaviour of a new terminology window opening. Unfortunately, this happens so rarely that i can't figure out under what conditions this works.
The terminology help has the following (and i'm not sure if this appies) : -s, --single Force single executable if multi-instance is enabled. But obviously i'm not using command line switches when trying to open in from the menu. I've also checked any terminology.desktop files to make sure the relevant line (Exec=terminology) does not have the -s option. Is this even what this option would do? Also, "if multi-instance is enabled" implies there must be some way of enabling it, but there don't appear to be any compile-time options that mention anything resembling this. Further, if i run terminology from the command line (either terminology's own, or another terminal such as uxterm) i DO get the expected behaviour. A new window opens every time. The only other thing i can think of that might be affecting this are the existing terminology window's remember options. I have these settings: Identifiers tab: window class: terminology Properties tab: position, size, border style, virtual desktop are checked Options tab: match only one window start this program on login The idea is to open a terminology window on login with the desired properties. I'm running terminology 1.1.1 (this may have started when i upgraded from a previous version, come to think of it) and Enlightenment 0.22.1. Does anyone have an idea what might be happening? Any more information i can provide?
