Hello. This patch adds functionality to spawn a process on a specific workspace by using the "_NET_WM_PID" property that most applications set for their windows(idea by sjanssen).

By the way, shouldn't it be possible with the same method to force applications appear at the same workspace they were launched?

Only if you can make the app tag its window with that somehow. I think you'll find there's no way to do it automatically. -- brandon s. allbery [solaris,freebsd,perl,pugs,haskell] allbery@kf8nh.com system administrator [openafs,heimdal,too many hats] allbery@ece.cmu.edu electrical and computer engineering, carnegie mellon university KF8NH
