Quoth BALATON Zoltan,
How does this relate to the existing Ctrl + Launch from the Dock or
Clip functionality? Just asking in case you didn't know about
that.
If the app is docked or attached to the clip, very similar. Control
+ double click will launch the app using the command line defined in
its settings.
If the app is undocked, Control + double click currently will not
launch it.
The difference is that the new functionality will launch a new
instance of the application using the same command line that was
originally used. So for example if you ran "xterm" and "xterm -rv"
then middle clicking the first xterm's undocked icon would launch
"xterm" and middle clicking the second one's would launch "xterm -rv"
again. That may be a different invocation from that defined in the
docked application's settings.
Useful if, like me, you have lots of applications buried in menus
that you want to run fairly often but not often enough to warrant
giving them their own hotkey.
extending Ctrl + Launch functionality to [undocked appicons] could
be more fitting to Window Maker in my opinion.
That's a fair point. Adding Control + double click as an
alternative way to invoke the new functionality would be just a few
extra lines of code.
