Hi,
I'm running gentoo, with,
xfce4-4.4.2
pyxfce-4.4.0
I wanted to search for and close a window from a script, and
pyxfce looked like a nice easy way to do this.
I run "thunar /tmp" from the shell, and I get a Thunar window with
title "tmp - File Manager".
Then I try the following,
#!/usr/bin/python
import xfce4.netk
s = xfce4.netk.screen_get_default()
for w in s.get_windows():
if w.get_name().startswith('tmp'):
w.close()
# w.minimize()
But it doesn't close the window like I would expect. .minimize(),
which is commented out above, *does* work, though, so I think
I have a handle on the right object.
Is there something else I need to do to get the window to close?
