I don't know WindowMaker. I currently use FVWM2 (I've been using FVWM
then FVWM2 for about 8 years). I want korganizer to start normally,
*except* in the InitFunction, from which it should start iconized. But
I don't know how to do that. For some applications like emacs or ical,
it is easy thanks to the -iconic option, but for those that don't have
such an option, I don't know.

That's a window manager function, not an application one, unless the app
is broken enough to ignore WM hints.

Peace.

 I disagree. How can the WM know when the user wants to start the
 application iconized and when he doesn't? The hint should come
 from the user, not the WM.

e.g.: WindowMaker:

Attributes... dialog = Window Attributes = Start miniaturized
checkbox.

replacement for ical?

2002-04-25 Thread Michael Jinks
Hi all.  Just upgraded one of our users from 2.1 to 3.0, and found out
afterwards that he uses ical to keep track of his schedule but there's
no ical in the latest version.  I've also tried to compile it (ical
source version 2.2) but the compile dies with tcl errors.

Is there something in woody that will read ical data files, or, has
anybody managed to get ical to build on woody?

Thanks much,
-mrj

searched ical in packages.debian.org

Found this
Current users of the popular program ical should definitely take a look
at KOrganizer and compare features.

I don't know if it can help. Perhaps it can import the ical files?
