Or you ask nicely from someone who has scripts that do what you
want. ;-) Quite seriously, many things in wmii can be done with a
(very) small script, and there could quite well be a repository (as
there is in wmii.de) for useful scripts. It goes a bit too far into
the Windows way (tm) if everything is one large package, and you
either take it or leave it.
Scripting is a good thing if it can enhance software for some of the
people that use it. I'm just arguing against leaving things out of
the main package that probably should be there because people can
always just script them in. This, of course, is a judgement call. I
shouldn't have to script anything to make the window manager livable
is all I'm saying. I have no trouble writing scripts for little
quirks or odd features that enhance something that is generally good
already.
Ah my english is terrible this morning... I must get coffee.
