If not, will there be a direct replacement? As an example, these are on my "must have" list before I can even consider Wayland: - remote *application*, not desktop. I.e X over a ssh tunnel. [As I understand it, there is a tool to handle remote applications available (or in development)] - ability to control windows using tools such as xdotool, wmctrl, etc. - change focus, send mouse clicks and keypresses [I saw something recently that seemed to suggest that this can be done using dbus?] And it should go without saying that existing X apps should "just work"; the one time I tried Wayland (back on f36 or so) very little seemed to work other than KDE itself. As an example, konsole worked, but xsane did not. To be fair I should probably give it a try again to see how things have progressed. -- _______________________________________________ kde mailing list -- kde@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe send an email to kde-leave@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Fedora Code of Conduct: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/ List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/kde@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Do not reply to spam, report it: https://pagure.io/fedora-infrastructure/new_issue
