Thanks a lot, Bill.
This xwit looks promising, I will explore it.
I keep procrastinating my immersion in zsh... Ars magna, vita brevis!

Yo Miguel:
I wrote a little helper zsh function/shell script called xtwit.
http://zsh-templates-osx.googlecode.com/svn-history/r53/trunk/Library/init/zsh/local-functions/darwin/xtwit
It wraps the command xwit (available via fink, for example) and
gives you a gui that allows you to select a window to pop to the
foreground:

My guess is xwit itself could be tailored to do exactly as you want,
and called from a python or scheme script.
eg:
xwit version 3.4
usage: xwit -display -sync
-pop -iconify -unmap
-resize w h -rows r -columns c -[r]move x y
-[r]warp x y -colormap -[no]save
-name -iconname
-bitmap -mask -[r]iconmove x y
-[no]backingstore -[no]saveunder
-[no]keyrepeat keycode ... keycode - keycode
-id -root -current -select
-names ... [must be last]
HTH,
Bill

Dear all,
I have looked in the manuals but haven't found anything concerning
the possibility of bringing all coot windows to foreground. In Mac
versions there is an annoying feature/bug consisting in some
windows going behind the main graphic windows and being invisible
in Apple's "Exposé", unless you happen to move your mouse over
where they actually are. The ghost windows I call them. In this
context, a "Bring all windows to front" or something similar would
be helpful. If it would exist it would instantly become a button in
my Menu bar...
BTW, has anyone else noticed that "Sort by Date" is not working?
(again, in Mack fink coot)
Best,
Miguel
