Hi! I'm a twm user, and I have a suggestion which twm fans everywhere would
REALLY appreciate. In addition to being able to click away zgrams ... be
able to click them away with keyboard input, for example, just hitting `d'
on a zephyrgram. That way, when a new zgram comes up, I can just "warp" to
it with a key, click it away with another, and then warp back to my
original window; with my fingers never leaving the keyboard. Quite fast,
and convenient.
Or even better: have zwgc obey a f.destroy command from a window manager.
Then you can just do in twm:
Function "kill-zgram" { f.warpto "Zwgc" f.destroy }
which will automatically go to the zgram, and get rid of it.
I know a couple of people have thought of doing this already, but just
haven't gotten around to it. From what I hear, it shouldn't be hard to do,
and would be IMMENSELY useful. Thanks!
Raul
