#6 Multiple configs at the same time

[Hombremaledicto]

Hi, speaking with Rob time ago he explained that in bespin it's possible to use multiple configs at the same time, by writing the name of the app in the bespin style dialog.
I did so, but nothing changed.
Is this possible/the correct way to do it?
For example if i have a grey preset for all windows, and i create a new one only for ktelepathy and kate to a black trasparent look, is it possible?
Sorry, i can't understand where i'm doing wrong :(

Preset assignent

Sure, see attached screenshot.
Run "bespin config", doubleclick right of the preset name and enter a comma separated list of *binaries* you want it to be assigned to.

Finsh editing by presssing enter or clicking somewhere outside and don't forget to either "save" or close the dialog by "ok".

The list must be the binaries, not some (generic or translated) application names - while often just the lowercase and no space variant they also might be complete different.
"kate" is however correct (no idea about ktelepathy but sounds reasonable)

Also notice that kate (alongside eg. konsole or dolphin) is special in usually not starting a new process while there's already one (so if there's an open dolphin window and you start dolphin from krun and hope the assignment applies - you're wrong ;-)
Just get rid of running instances or force (--nofork) a new one.

Many thanks!!
Before it didn't work because i was using the name of apps instead of bin: e.g. ktelepathy contactlist is ktp-contactlist and instead of comma i just separated them with a space :P
Now works for both ktelepathy and kwrite, curiously kate remains the same (kill the app didn't work), now i'm going to log in and log out and see if it change.

kate works just as much as any other application - if you don't get it to work, please attach your ~/.config/Bespin/Style.conf and ~/.config/Bespin/Store.conf

After i logged out/in again it works...I have another thing to ask, but it's better to write on feature request.
