I just happened to find this hack, which seems to accomplish (most of) the desired functionality:
xdaliclock -transparent -xrm "*overrideRedirect: True" & This can be used in conjunction with '-geometry' to put the clock anywhere on the desktop, etc. The only downside is that the clock ends up "always-on-top", and can't be covered by other windows, like a well-behaved part of the background. Anyone know how to force an X window to be "always on BOTTOM" ? --Gabriel -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
