What is the tiny dot under the taskbar for ?
What is the tiny dot under the taskbar for ?
I am just curiously about the use of the tiny square dot at the low right of screen, you need to move the taskbar up to see it, I click on it nothing happened seems like a comestic flaw, but it reminds me 'The Net' movie
Do you Yahoo ? No I hiccup only :wink:
From /root/.xinitrc, here is what it says:
#0.9.8 sync cut-buffers and clipboard. only useful for older apps
#such as rxvt that use the cut-buffers...
/usr/bin/autocutsel &
#...disadvantage of this is it creates a little square bottom-right of screen.

yes, for some functions of X a program needs a window, even if it is almost invisible.
I once wrote a tool, that sets "struts", that are borders on your desktop.
So a newly opened window will not cover a taskbar for example.
I only got it working by creating a window, and moving it outside the visible area.
Without that window, the desktop could not be controlled.
This is the reason, why Puppybasic has the on first sight "useless" function xwin_createsimplewindow().
