Yea this is how youd go about that. The current workspace can be grabbed off the root window. So youd write an external app that grabbed this. Then make a script that grabbed the current workspace, and runs your app with bblaunch to set the workspace. Then use this script for everything in the menu and bbkeys etc. Not something Blackbox should do itself. Ben -- I am damn unsatisfied to be killed in this way.
