I finally took Zenatra's advice and used part of wmctrl code to create the app I needed.

From: Marcelo Yezzi <myezzi@xxxxxxxxx> To: gtk-list@xxxxxxxxx Subject: here's my problem Date: Wed, 21 Feb 2007 18:43:15 -0500 Hello all I'm trying to figure out what is the title text of the active window in my screen. I need that information to name a file that will be later used in another application. As an example, if I had to name a file right now it should be something like "here's_my_problem", since that's the tile of the currently active window in my system So my questions are: 1. How do I get information about the currently selected window? 2. How do I get the title of that window? (I've been reading about Gtk::Window::get_title(), but I'm not sure) I'm open to pretty much any programming language although I'd prefer either C or Perl. Thanks in advance for any hint Marcelo

Once you get a WnckWindow object you can query pretty much any window-manager-y aspect of it. There is documentation from libwnck in the source tarball, and once it is installed, you can look at it useing devhelp, for example. HTH. -- m -- Mariano Suárez-Alvarez http://www.gnome.org/~mariano

Many of you must already be using them, so if any of you could post how you did that, i would be very grateful and create a blog about the topic so that it is not addressed any more. What files do I need to download? What directories should I add in the PATH environmental variable? What include, lib and bin directories should I add in Dev-C++? Etc... Thanks

You can use the pkg-config in the command line to see what you need and add this entries into the library and lib entries. CU Michael -- ,''`.

Why not ask on some Dev-C++ list then? Why not learn by experimenting? If you are a programmer, it shouldn't be that hard to find out the answer to your questions just by educated guessing and trial and error. (If you aren't a programmer, well, why do you want to use GTK+ then?) Then submit your results to the Dev-C++ FAQ (if there is one)? The answer is roughly (note that I have never used Dev-C++: Add the "bin" folder(s) to PATH, and then run the command: pkg-config --cflags gtk+-2.0 to find out what to add to the compiler flags, and run: pkg-config --libs gtk+-2.0 to find out that to add to the linker flags. (It would of course be most elegant if Dev-C++ could be told to do that itself to find out the flags.) If you don't have pkg-config, download it, from ftp://ftp.gtk.org/pub/gtk/v2.10/win32/dependencies . If you downloaded some "easy to use" single-file-that-includes-everything GTK+ development bundle and it didn't include pkg-config, tell those who packaged it that they really should include pkg-config, too. pkg-config is the only supported (as in, "supported by the actual maintainers of upstream GTK+") way to find out the compiler flags to use. --tml

There is also wmctrl, which has a c program and a perl module. It does everything you want except identify the active window. It does have an :ACTIVE: identifier, but it seems that it dosn't give you the current active window ( since the current active is itself running :-) ) See: http://sweb.cz/tripie/utils/wmctrl/ There are also a link to a focusfinder.c program at http://gnomesupport.org/forums/viewtopic.php?t=10379 zentara
