[Tfug] Running a terminal in the root window

[Anthony Steckman]

I forgot to provide the (more) relevant code:

	"W-Left" `(activate-workspace 1)
	"W-Right" `(activate-workspace 2)
	"C-KP_End" `(activate-viewport 1 2)
	"C-KP_Down" `(activate-viewport 2 2)
	"C-KP_Left" `(activate-viewport 1 1)
	"C-KP_Begin" `(activate-viewport 2 1)

These and any other global keyboard shortcuts belong in the same 
bind-keys function I offered previously.

I'd tend to advise against using the associated configuration utility 
due to portability problems. It's much easier to maintain a single 
configuration file that can be carried from system to system.

. True, and I admit I hadn't thought about that.
. 
. You could, however, program keyboard shortcuts into your .sawfishrc that 
. would allow you to navigate desktops and viewports without using the 
. mouse. You could do the same with your root menu as well as any 
. additional menus you'd created (I personally think the default 
. middle-click root menu way of doing things is, um, lacking):
. 
. (bind-keys global-keymap
. 	"W-F1" `(popup-apps-menu)
. 	"W-F2" `(popup-menu my-menu)
. 	"W-F3" `(popup-root-menu)
. )
. 
. The above comes out of my own rc file where the apps-menu has been 
. separated from the root-menu and my-menu is a third menu defined 
. elsewhere in the same file.

. . But then you couldn't click on the background, unless Eterm is magical
