Hmmm, those OSD programs are pretty interesting. I'll install them once I get home.

| In fluxbox the label of the current desktop is visible on the taskbar. I kind of miss that. Is there any dockapp or something that displays the desktop label? I'd like to have it visible all the time. |

I've never had any problems with the program. The ebuild is still being worked on (and it's not uploaded to portage yet...).

Quick Question...
What does n/.*/ mean in config screen0.dock0.order?
And how do I reverse this order?
I know I should ask on IRC, but I can only access http and ftp from where I am.  |

Does anyone know a solution to the xft error when emerging kahakai?
I get that since I had to reinstall gentoo on my box and now I'm sorta clueless. |

Emerging gtk2 seemed to fix this for me. |

Alright, I'll give it a try then as soon as I get back from work. Thanks.
EDIT: emerge gtk+ worked fine, kahakai is currently compiling. Thanks again! |

alt+tab doesn't work for me. I'm using 0.5.1
when I hold down alt and press tab, all that happens is that the window decorations on the currently focused window darken, as if the window has lost the focus. when I release the tab key, the window gets the focus back.
I'm running pretty much the default userconfig.py, the only thing I've changed is this:
| Code: |
def defaultAllWindows(self):
return [ (KeyPress(Alt, 'F1'), 'Raise'),
(KeyPress(Alt, 'F3'), 'Lower') ]
|
trying to be able to use alt+f1 to raise the current window, and alt+f3 to lower the current window. but that doesn't work either, they cause the same behavior as alt+tab.
help! I'm excited about all this scripting power. If I can just get started I think I'll really like it.

Alt + tab works for me. I also run 0.5.1. Check if you have this line in userconfig.py and see that alt tab doesn't appear somewhere else in the file.
| Code: | # default action is "TaskSwitcher", pass it something else if you want.
# ("PreviousTask" is also nice)
altTab( action="TaskSwitcher" ) |
As for your modifications, I tried them and they didn't work for me either. Then I replaced the Alt with Ctrl, and lo! It works. Don't know why alt doesn't work.
*EDIT* I played around with it and now it works. Can't see any difference between the codes either... Perhaps kahakai needs to be restarted several times before changes take effect 
| Code: | return [(KeyPress(Alt, 'F1'), 'Raise'),
(KeyPress(Alt, 'F3'), 'Lower')] |

I checked the altTab line, I have it just like yours, with no other occurrences.

So what if you comment that line and add the following to your global key bindings:
| Code: | | (KeyPress(Alt, 'Tab'), 'TaskSwitcher') |
Did you get the Alt+F1/F3 working? Otherwise perhaps kahakai reads the default file from /usr/local/share/kahakai? Did you recently upgrade from kahakai 3 (or was it 4?), they changed the format of the userconfig file... Otherwise, perhaps it's that your changes are commented, python uses these triple quotes as block comment start and stop. No other ideas atm. |

Does anybody know howto change altTab to superTab? I want to preserve the alt keybindings to emacs and alt-tab is heavily used there.
globalActions([ (KeyPress(-Ctrl-AltGr+Super,"Tab"), "TaskSwitcher")])
doesn't the trick for me. It popups the right taskswitch window, but doesn't switch to the next task like altTab does.

I think you are looking for this -- Change the "TaskSwitcher" to "PreviousTask".
Oh yeah, for some Kahakai themes, check out my homepage. </shamelessplug>

Do you mean that taskswitcher doesn't close and switch to the chosen application when you release the super button? At least that's what happens for me when I try. Weird... I wonder if they know about that. Perhaps you could file a bug report.

No, this just toggles between the previous and the actual task. I want to cycle through the windows on the desktop. |

first of all: very well done wm! i really like it, more easier to look through than fluxbox i think.
right now i'm looking for a taskbar like fluxbox has. i tried pypanel, but it doesn't work too well, strange clipping like errors.
what else is there i could use? gnomepanel perhaps? is it any good, i never really liked gnome...
