I can see the misunderstanding.
Let me try to explain.
In CDE, if we want to start xterm in workspace Two, we can do xterm -xrm "*workspaceList: Two"
In CDE, if we want to start a tcl/tk window in workspace Two, we can call the proc below:
proc myToplevel {winName} {
toplevel $winName
wm command $winName {"" "-xrm" "*workspaceList: Two"}
}
You can see the resource string we pass to executable xterm is the same with that we pass to a tcl/tk window.
So my question:
Is there such a resource string in KDE?

Thank your reply.
To clarify my problem:
I'm writing a program with Tcl/Tk, how can I make a toplevel window appear in a given desktop?
Or is there a resource string I can pass to xterm's -xrm option to make xterm start up in the given desktop?
Thanks. Ming
I can't see it happening. You want a child process to control a parent process, and I don't think it will be possible.
Out of curiosity, why can't your tcl/tk program call "kstart yadda yadda yadda" instead of "xterm"?
