LanX has asked for the wisdom of the Perl Monks concerning the following question:
It should be trivial but my googling strategy failed for half an hour now...
I want to retrieve which applications have an open window and manipulate location and geometry of these windows.
Maybe it's XY ... I just want to automatize changing between different screen settings with browsers and editor and other applications on different screens I use for development...
Apparently gnome doesn't have a standard tool to tile windows ...
Cheers Rolf
...ahh meanwhile got some hits while searching! 8)
Do you folks recommend wmctrl and X11::WMCtrl or are there better ways to do it? UPDATE: thanx guys, sometimes asking is already the answer, I'm already using wmctrl! 8)
