Hi, I have updated this patch set to not conflict with current upstream. I’d also like to get some feedback on this: What is the best way to react on X event once at all (and not once per workspace)? Thanks, Joachim Fri Oct 12 00:55:58 CEST 2007 mail@joachim-breitner.de * EwmhDesktops reacts to messages from panel apps Hi, this patch makes EwmhDesktops react to ClientMessages send from e.g. the panel switcher. It currently only supports changing the current desktop (which at least for me is the most important feature). Note that you need my patch against X11-extras that adds ClientMessage support. You also need my messageHook hack against darcs. I tried to implement this without changes to the core, but trying to do some hack based on LayoutModifieres weren’t very satisfying. The code is still there, just commented. I’d very much appreciate any comments on how this functionality can go in, after 0.4, I guess.

If someone has a good idea how to fix that, that would be great!
