Re: [dwm] program notification

Hi,

I use centericq , and wrote a small script that writes conversation in
the statusbar when someone talke to me. Basically I use xwininfo to see
if there is any action in my window, and if this is the case , I just
parse the logs.

#!/bin/bash
icqinfo=$(xwininfo -root -children -events | grep "event from" )
[ $? -gt 0 ] && return
icqaccount=$(echo $icqinfo| awk ' {printf
substr($5,2,1)substr($6,1,length($6)-2) } ')
message=$(tail -1 ~/.centericq/$icqaccount/history)
printf "{{{ $icqaccount : $message }}} -"

However I think it could be a good idea to add color (like for exemple
changing the workspace number background to red when there is an event
on a windowid in that workspace.
That way , if workspace number 2 becomes red, I know I need to switch to
workspace 2 to see what event is pending...

Lobzang.
