Why not? The operation you're talking about (find an emacs, and ensure it is visible and focused) is more related to the window manager and X11 environment, so to me it makes much more sense to use wmctrl than look for some elisp. Plus, wmctrl is easy and already works, so why look for an alternative? I certainly wouldn't class this solution as an ugly hack; the only slightly ugly thing is embedding sh -c somewhere, but as I already pointed out, that is easily surmountable. _______________________________________________ Emacs-orgmode mailing list Remember: use `Reply All' to send replies to the list.
