I'd suggest posting it somewhere else to avoid confusion. I've had a quick look at your scripts but haven't tried them. They seem quite complicated, but maybe they do more than mine. I've taken note of how you use 'kdotool windowmove' and have added this to my own scripts (don't know why I hadn't noticed this before :-). I'll upload them shortly (still not very familiar with Gist to be honest). -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
