Subject: [9fans] Abaco's Web Page Name in winwatch
Date: Mon,  2 Jul 2007 11:56:46 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <fa0673f0fd952b82990697c005e9ed5a@comcast.net> (raw)

I realize that abaco manages multiple web pages itself,
but, for reasons I won't go into, I generally launch a new
small abaco window for each web page. To help this style
of usage along, I've been trying to incorporate writing
to /dev/label into the abaco code. I took this bit

	int fd;
	fd = open("/dev/label", OWRITE);
	if(fd >= 0) {
		write(fd, title, strlen((char *)title));
		close(fd);
	}

from plan9.c in links-varfont since links exhibits the
behavior I'm looking for. I've tried using this substituting
various combinations of w->tag, w->page.title, &w->tag,
&w->page.title etc. for "title" and putting the lot into
winsettag1 in abaco/wind.c with no luck (In most cases,
either the build fails with prototype mismatch, or the
build is successful, but I only get an apparently unrelated
character or two in winwatch).

The usual I'm-no-programmer-apologies etc. etc.

Thanks for any help moving this small customization along.

Greg
