Wow... that is great! Thanks a lot.
Now... I was thinking about going one step further:
since licq is always shaded is there a way to make it unshade
automatically (withouth clicking the mouse) whenever the mouse pointer
is over it? This would also be very nice with the pager, since unless
I'm going to click it to change desktops I'd really like it to be
shaded and shading and unshading it all the time is not very
practical, since instead of one click I have to do 3.
I was wondering about this and I didn't even know how to get the
current mouse position on X.... I took a look at some sites and I did
not find anything too promissing. There was one program that would
check every X seconds to see if the mouse position was at Y, but that
is not something I'd like, since it wouldn't be instantaneous.
Another thing I checked was making a program that uses xlib to,
whenever it gets the focus, run the appropriate eesh script to unshade
the window... but that seemed a bit too complicated.
So, since you guys are more expert, you might know.... Hope you can help here.
Thanks again,
Roberto.
