er... a runner for what? :) a windowlist runner isn't useful because I don't remember the names of the windows. an activity-switcher runner isn't any more useful than tabbing through them. the problem here is that I *might* have some window somewhere that I've completely forgotten about having unsaved content in, like one of my konsoles or a konqueror tab with a half-writen comment, or a kmail window (rare but has happened). 'course, it'd be a slightly easier process if I could close the activities individually (including windows, I mean). then I would at least know which ones were clear. _______________________________________________ Plasma-devel mailing list Plasma-devel@kde.org https://mail.kde.org/mailman/listinfo/plasma-devel
