I'm trying to switch over from fvwm2 to october gnome with enlightenment
0.16.3. I can mostly get this to behave as I want, but there are some
pieces missing:
1) Is there a way to bind mouse buttons to actions? For example in fvwm2
I have ALT mouse-button-3 set to raise the current window.
2) I'm using the gnome deskguide. Is there a way to get it to display
the names of the icons, rather than just their shape? And I'd also like
to change the background colour - but that's not so important.
3) Is it possible to configure the mouse bindings for panel iconbox?
4) Is there a way of forcing applications to start on a particular
desktop, similar to fvwm2's StartsOnDesk. I know gnome can remember
which desktop an application was on, but for memory intensive or crash
prone applications (step forward netscape), i'd like to be able to start
them in a particular place, and close them when they're not needed.
Alternatively is it possible for the gnome panel to swallow the fvwm2
pager (assuming the latest gnome-compatible fvwm2).
Finally, does a swallowed app have to have any particular properties, or
just have to be small enough to fit in the panel? In which case, how do
I resize the panel?
If any/all of these questions are answered in the documentation, please
point me at the appropriate place.
Thanks and regards,
Chris
