I can't fully blame myself for missing this post in the first place (being in a hospital and not owning a bluetooth-enabled cellphone), but it's congratulations nevertheless! Despite of the disagreements I might have posted against you, I still think I owe you some beer (not having a chance to meet in person back a while ago when I used to live in Finland). :) > (Well, I doubt there's a semi-usable non-fascist platform left > by then.

So who's signing up?-) I'm kinda on it for a while now, although not nearly as ready for anything yet. Still, this post gives me sort of an ass kick, therefore I'd like to continue this conversation more subject-wise, like collecting ideas and opinions and with a higher seriousness than that of "hey, I'm writing a new operating system, it'll be mostly like linux, except for I'm the author" approach that I can possibly call for. Thanks for bringing this up. -- wit beyond measure is man's greatest treasure

This "winter" sucks. (Actually my dictionary is probably wrong -- they often are -- claiming "jigging" is "pilkkiminen", and it's really just "ice fishing".) -- Tuomo

The Firefox Firebug extension also has measurements, easily accessible in the context menu Inspect Element -> Layout tab on the right. It does many things the Web Developer toolbar doesn't, so I always install both. Ted

I'd like to have my Audacious without any > decorations... Basically, you can't. It's very intentional. In case of tiled frames, you can in principle define the tiled-alt style to have no decorations. (By default it has no tab-bar.) But the borders between frames are typically formed from the decorations of frames on both sides of the border. -- Tuomo

Hello list, I've got a small question: how do I remove all window decorations around a specific client window? I'd like to have my Audacious without any decorations... cu, Adam.
