    katapult / fluxbox: bound to one desktop?

    i just installed katapult and when i do my keystroke, it works great, but it gets "bound" to that desktop until i quit. when i do the keystroke on another desktop nothing happens, and when i go back to the one i opened it on, it has popped up.

    if there is a workaround, i would be happy to know. thanks!

    solved

    Although this entry is a bit old;

    maybe someone's interested:

    Look for the ".fluxbox" directory in your home directory. There should be a file named "apps". If not, create it.

    In this file you can add commands to start programs and define how they should behave in the fluxbox environment. Example:

    This will start katapult:
    [startup] {katapult}

    This will prevent the switch to the workspace, katapult was started from:
    [app] (name=katapult)
    [Sticky] {yes}
    [Jump] {no}
    [end]

    At least, the apps file must get loaded by fluxbox. This can be done by editing the file ".fluxbox/init" by adding/umcommenting this line:
    session.appsFile: ~/.fluxbox/apps

    Restart fluxbox (maybe logout/login) and it should be done.

    cu.. nigum
