25 # This is the shell script frontend for the adesklets interpreter, introduced
26 # in adesklets 0.4.11. It serves a couple simple purposes:
28 # - Bring all the fake-root windows detection code out of the binary
29 # interpreter, and detect them from a front-end. It makes it far simpler
30 # and quicker to adapt to new situations, as this code is no longer written
31 # in C, but in a sh-compatible scripting form. Hopefully, in this new format,
32 # people will be able to contribute new detection routines for specific
33 # Window Manager easily.
35 # - Print out a couple of warnings to hopefully prevent some people that
36 # would not read the fourth chapter from the manual from not invoking
37 # adesklets right.
39 # - Add a couple of functionalities, such as configuration file cleanup, and
40 # desklets killing.
42 # PORTABILITY NOTICE:
43 # ===================
45 # This shell script was made to comply with the POSIX 1003.2 and 1003.2a
46 # specification for the shell, and not use any vendor-specific extension
47 # for any program invoked. It has been tested on both BASH 3.00.16 and NetBSD
48 # ash 1.6.1 on a variety of platforms. It also uses some low-level, fairly
49 # common utilities or builtin, all also described in POSIX, namely:
51 # 1) a Streaming EDitor (sed). It as been tested on GNU sed 4.0.9, and FreeBSD
52 # 4.9 sed
53 # 2) test, conforming to POSIX 1003.2
54 # 3) mkdir and rmdir
55 # 4) sleep
56 # 5) kill
57 # 6) ls
59 # The xprop and xwinfinfo programs can also be used, if a given fake-root
60 # window detection routine is explicitely invoked. Both XFree86 and X.org
61 # implementations of these utilities have been tested. Window Manager specific
62 # detection will also potentially need WM specific programs:
64 # kde: need consolde dcop client

131 Fake root window detection
132 --kde KDE >= 3.4.1 desktop detection
133 --nautilus Nautilus desktop detection
134 --rox ROX-Filer detection (incomplete)
135 --user Interactive detection (by user click)
136 --xfce4 Xfce4 desktop detection (tested on Xfce4 4.2.0)
138 --do-it-once When applicable, do not run the detection for each desklet,
139 but only once for all. Of course, desklets on multiple
140 screens will unlikely detect the right fake root window, but
141 it will speed things up for single screen settings.

158 The most usual invokation of adesklets is the bare \`adesklets' command,
159 without arguments: it makes adesklets launch every registered desklets
