kciconsbox (simple pygtk app to restore minimized ('invisible') windows)
 

as in title, v0.1.1 is attached to this message or available at:
http://mrrau.dyndns.org:23280/n800/kciconsbox/

what's the purpose of this app? if you ever used not-hildonized app, you will know what happens after accidental minimizing, you have to kill it. but fear no more, kciconsbox will present you a list of windows to restore :)

ps1. it's a preliminary version, quick and dirty proof of concept, but works :)
ps2. if you have any questions/comments i'm on #maemo (freenode)
ps3. for installation instruction see README.txt

Now THAT is an incredibly useful idea ! Thanks !

Thanks! I'd heard of wmctrl, but hadn't seen a copy around (or been bothered enough to go look, really).

Nice interface to wmctrl, indeed! Unfortunately it works only with wíndows registered with Matchbox - which doesn't seem to apply to rdesktop 1.5 in full screen mode. BTW, switching among windows is possible by defining a shortcut in /home/user/.matchbox/kbdconfig (it's faster than via Home applet). Check for details.

I meant check http://matchbox-project.org/document...manual/wm.html for details. URL somehow dissapeared :-(

hmm, i should check it, because i have tested it with links2-browser and xmms (both not hildonized) if there is a flag in wmctrl that can list that rdesktop window too you can simply add it to the wmctrl in the script (i think)
