Subject: [9fans] my winwatch virtual desktop-like space setup thingy...
Date: Thu, 26 Oct 2006 14:55:37 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <3e1162e60610261455o79ee37bem8f46f93e6522ef72@mail.gmail.com> (raw)
I was asked to post it so here goes. It's not very cleaned up yet but
what I have is basically the following: (feel free to critique it,
beat me about the head and neck with my own ignorance or whatever...)
in lib/profile
switch($service) {
case terminal
plumber
upas/fs
exec rio -i lib/mystart
...
lib/mystart:
#!/bin/rc
swidth=`{cat /env/vgasize | awk -F x '{print $1}'}
sheight=`{cat /env/vgasize | awk -F x '{print $2}'}
window -r 0 0 100 $sheight winwatch -e winwatch
# Below are my "desktops" They just overlap
# Yes I know the full path isn't necessary...
window -r 100 0 400 200 kprinter # just watches /dev/kprint for me...
window -r 101 0 $swidth $sheight /usr/leimy/bin/rc/riosession SEmail #
Speakeasy email
window -r 101 0 $swidth $sheight /usr/leimy/bin/rc/riosession Mormail
# Mordor email
window -r 101 0 $swidth $sheight /usr/leimy/bin/rc/riosession Work # "work"
Then there's "riosession"
#!/bin/rc
echo -n $1 > /dev/label
bind /dev/null /dev/label
sleep 2 # I actually forget why I did that
rio
