I want to run an application and not have display in a normal window -- that is a window without window decorations (window border, buttons). I also don't want it to show up in the panel task bar. This was possible in IceWM setting window options, for example: gbuffy.Gbuffy.icon: navigator gbuffy.Gbuffy.dTitleBar: 0 gbuffy.Gbuffy.dBorder: 0 gbuffy.Gbuffy.ignoreTaskBar: 1 gbuffy.Gbuffy.allWorkspaces: 1 gbuffy.Gbuffy.layer: OnTop I assume Gnome and Metacity is a more advanced DE/WM so it would be possible. thanks, -- Bill Moseley moseley@xxxxxxxx _______________________________________________ gnome-list mailing list gnome-list@xxxxxxxxx http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gnome-list
