############################################################################## # # # This is the Conservatory archive of the wmctrl, a Unix command-line # # tool to interact with an EWMH/NetWM-compatible X Window Manager. # # # # wmctrl is free software (open source software), written by Tomas Styblo # # with contributions from others. http://tripie.sweb.cz/utils/wmctrl/ is # # its home page. # # # # Because wmctrl does not appear to have any publicly accessible version # # control repository, we've created this Conservatory Git repository. # # We're not sure if Tomas Styblo or any of the other contributors are # # are currently accepting bug reports, but if you run into a bug you # # could try reporting it upstream and see what happens. (As of this # # writing on 2018-09-08, the latest wmctrl release was in January 2005.) # # # # About the Conservatory and its copy of wmctrl: # # ---------------------------------------------- # # # # The Conservatory (https://conservatory.github.io/) is a place where # # free software that has no other public version-controlled home on the # # Internet is made available in a git repository. For wmctrl, we started # # from http://tripie.sweb.cz/utils/wmctrl/dist/wmctrl-1.07.tar.gz and # # then deduced the names of the previous releases. We have committed # # each upstream release as one git revision, starting from 1.00, using # # https://github.com/Conservatory/conservatory.github.io/blob/master/\ # # conservatory-import and the upstream ChangeLog to automate the process. # # # # There are other version-controlled copies of wmctrl on the Internet. # # We found at least these two, and there may be others: # # # # * https://github.com/geekless/wmctrl # # # # Adds -Y (iconify) and -S (sort in stacking order) options. # # Also backports some 64-bit-data fixes from a Debian patch. # # # # * https://github.com/dancor/wmctrl # # # # Adds -j (list current desktop), -z (lower window), # # and some other interesting new options. # # # # Those two started from a top-skim of wmctrl 1.07, though, so they don't # # preserve the full upstream release history. It'd be nice if someone # # were to clone this Conservatory copy and then re-port the enhancements # # from those other repositories to create a canonical new wmctrl release. # # # # In the meantime, this README is the only file we've changed from what's # # in upstream, and the only change we made was to add this note. Below # # is the original content of the README file. # # # ############################################################################## wmctrl A command line tool to interact with an EWMH/NetWM compatible X Window Manager. To compile and install the program, run the following commands: ./configure make (become root) make install After installation you may run "wmctrl -h" to view the documentation. The program is based on the EWMH specification: http://www.freedesktop.org/standards/wm-spec/ Please note that wmctrl only works with window managers which implement this specification. The homepage of wmctrl: http://sweb.cz/tripie/utils/wmctrl/ I recommend you to check out Zenity, which is an excellent tool to integrate the GUI and the command line. http://ftp.acc.umu.se/pub/GNOME/sources/zenity/ Author, current maintainer: Tomas Styblo <tripie@cpan.org> Copyright (C) 2003 This program is free software which I release under the GNU General Public License.
