What's the functionality you want? The only thing I can think of would be each individual window getting it's own paste buffer. On Fri, Sep 6, 2013 at 4:01 PM, Kwan Lowe wrote: > > I am searching for a way in X11 to "partition" or "divide" the screen. > > For example the physical size of the sc

Re: [CentOS] RPM Build Guidance

I think you should learn how to package rpms, it's a really useful skill. That being said, you should also learn how to steal. Musescore is already packaged for Fedora under the name mscore. You can probably steal their srpm. Install the src rpm and run rpmbuild -ba on the spec. It should be a go
