[SLE] [Semi-OT] IceWM and WindowMaker
Sorry for this off topic post, but does anyone know of a good website describing the Menu Setup of either or both of these windowmanagers? I've checked, and neither of them ever has a section of how to setup or configure your menu's. Maybe I'm just not looking in the right spots.

I have found no resources for icewm, but the menus can be configured really easely - just create ~/.icewm directory. Then do touch ~/.icewm/menu Thane open the file ~/.menu in your favorite file editor and edit it like this: If you would like to create a folder do: "A folder" iconname { prog "name of the programe" iconname programname and the switches } The firt line is how you begin a folder (instead of A folder you can write in whatever you want, instead icconname you can write in a name of an icon to use (it has to be an iconname_16x_16.xpm tough), usually you would use folder here, so the first line would look like this: "A folder" folder { That way you would get icon of a folder beside the name. The second line is prog - which defines that the program is going to be run from there, the "name of the program can bse substituted with anything you want" iconname acts the same way as the one in the first line, "programname and the switches are the actual program name that is going to be run. <shameless plug> If you would like to add some news to your menu please check icenews on this site: http://lenin.gimp.thz.net/~neonatus/prog_eng.html - it is a script that pulls headlines of a few linux sites to your icewm menu. (actually it is a hak of other wm scripts ;)) If you have any more questions please ask. And a word to suse in next versions of creating icewm rpm's plase use --withl8n at configure time.
