[E-devel] Patch to add desktop selection to enlightenment_remote

All,

I just did a quick hack to allow desktop selection using enlightenment_remote.

I was thinking it might be nice to be able to use a shell script to
change desktops.

It doesn't do any validation except to ensure that it is changing to a
real desktop (to prevent e from segfaulting :) and this is my first
time trying to do anything in the e code. I couldn't tell if there was
anywhere else i needed to make changes other than in the
e_ipc_handlers*.h in the main bin source code.

Comments are welcome.

Thanks for e,
 Marc

[E-devel] More IPC exporting

Hello, 

I got started with the winlist configuration. Did the exporting and some
testing.  All config values seem to work correctly. 

One thing I noticed is that the warp_while_selecting option is only
honored while the focus_policy is not CLICK. Is that by definition? I
would think that some would want to have warping for any focus policy.

its required by definition. the pointer must end up in the app after winlist
pops down because winlist retains a grab - or the window may be UNDER the
winlist. so that means e then gets a mouse leave/enter event into a new widnow
and then responds by changing the focus wherever the mouse is. since x is asymc
this event may come at any time after we pop down. so to save a LOOOT of pain
and hacky hacky hack code that likely will have more bugs in it than anything
else and likely still will not work in some cases, i made it raw policy that if
you have pointer or sloppy focus the mouse pointer MUST end up IN the client
window at the need of an alt-tab session. it may do what it wants while winlist
is up, but at the end must be in the window you tabbed to.

aaah well... if you are going to make this ipc... you should be a bit more
thorough. note that e17 has not just X x Y virtual desktops, but zones and
containers. containers are create per x root window (x may have multiple root
window) - right now there is only 1 container per root - but nothing stopping
more of them. then each container may have 1 or more zones (rectangular regions
within the container that a physical screen looks at). these generally
correspond to xinerama screens. then each zone can have X x Y desktops - so...
if you want ipc to flip desktops - you need to tell it which zone AND which
container to flip the desktop of :)

[E-devel] Patch to make e_utils' e17setroot use some ecore_file stuff

Hello,

This patch against e_utils' e17setroot.c replaces some of the local code with calls to ecore_file that
should produce the same results but with less code duplication.

Cheers,
Chad

[E-devel] Focus Setting

Hello, 

There was an option (focus_setting) that was accidently marked as
complete but not implemented.

Now it is really complete.

hi. thanks for answering ;) 
anyway, you are wrong. as an example, look at xdm. works like a
charm....

as i said, it looks like entranced does not seteuid before writing to
the user's .xauthority.....
