thanks for that, and you've been very helpful too. That is much appreciated.

Yes, although it's almost not worth it. Since my last message I
discovered that this is sufficient:

    require 'gi'
    class Keybinder; end
    GI::Loader.load('Keybinder', Keybinder)

But, since I already have a gem templated I will upload it...

I had to use Xlib to do it, with the help of 'xlib-objects':

    require 'xlib-objects'
    ...
    def show_all
      mg = screen.get_monitor_geometry(
           screen.get_monitor_at_window(
           screen.active_window()))
      x = mg.x
      width = mg.width
      move(x,0)
      resize(width,height)

      super

      topw = XlibObj::Window.new(XlibObj::Display.new(':0'),
              toplevel.window.xid)
      XlibObj::Window::Property.new(topw, '_NET_WM_STRUT').set(
              [0, 0, self.height, 0 ],
              :CARDINAL)
      XlibObj::Window::Property.new(topw, '_NET_WM_STRUT_PARTIAL').set(
              [0, 0, self.height, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, x, x+width-1, 0, 0],
              :CARDINAL)

    end

Best,
John
