xfwm4 personalized settings

[Thomas R. Shannon]

Thanks.  So does this mean that custom macros are no longer supported?
For instance, I had one macro which started an application or, if the
app was already started, focused it and brought it to the front.  This
is unlikely to be found in any gui setup.

I guess I could use an alternative wm for now and test the rest of the
package.  It certainly does seem nice in many respects.  Sawfish seems
to work OK and its certainly flexible enough.  Most of the others I've
tried apparently aren't compliant, yet.  Any suggestions?

Thanks, again.

Of course the game is rigged. Don't let that stop you - if you don't
play, you can't win.
