Adds a _NET_WM_PID property to be able to check the pid of the creator of the xterm window (i.e. the xterm process) This is to have a decent relationship between processes and windows for upcoming xfce stuff (still in svn only) Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce:
at http://svn.foo-projects.org/svn/xfce/pyxfce/trunk/patches/xterm-191-pid.patch, that is.
Thomas, I think you should see this patch -- if it's going to be a candidate for inclusion in some future release, then I can put it as part of a patchset for gentoo users. Anyway, your call :)
I did notice it this morning while checking progress on the other reports. A quick glance at http://library.n0i.net/linux-unix/standards/ex-hints/ar01s05.html seems to show this is the only item that "must" be set by the client. I'll read more on this and probably adapt it in #203.
I added this (minor changes) in xterm patch #203.
Please everyone, test xterm-204 that just went into this tree to see if it solves any of your issues. It works pretty nicely for me.
Since thomas added this in 203 (but that never made it into portage, because I couldn't even get it to work right for me) I'm closing this bug. As of now 204 is in portage, but hard masked for testing/feedback.
this is in upstream too now Patch #203 - 2005/7/6 - XFree86 4.5.99.7 http://dickey.his.com/xterm/xterm.log.html Very nice :)
