Hi Everybody,
I know people have sucessfully done this, but if you have, please do me a favor and post your ~/.fluxbox/init and ~/.fluxbox/groups or whatever you use as a group file. It is supposed to group windows together (same geometry, tabs seperating them), right? Here's mine:
GROUPS FILE
Since version 0.1.11, Fluxbox has a feature called auto_
grouping, that is apps are automatically grouped together
if they are in the same group. You can create groups sim_
ply by editing the ~/.fluxbox/groups file. The file takes
the format of:
<app1> <app2> <app3> ... <appN>
where elements can be found with this command:
xprop WM_CLASS
Just launch this command in a terminal and click on the
desired app after. It will tell you what to write as ele_
ment. Each line forms a different group, e.g:
Navigator nedit
xterm
This will create two groups, one with netscape and nedit,
and one with xterm. The new window will only group itself
to other windows on the same workspace and to the last
window that was focused.
Can't remember but flux may have trouble with tilde expansion - some apps do, anyway. Try giving the full path to the file. And did you use 'xprop' to find out the WMCLASS? Because mozilla-bin is probably wrong: mozilla is either 'Mozilla' or 'navigator:browser'. rxvt should be right but it may need to be XTerm. Kinda guessing here but it may help. Otherwise, yeah, it looks right.
Oh, and maybe cut to the simplest thing: you have to 'reload config' or 'restart' to have it take effect.
