Pop-up window using X11
Anyone know of a way to create a pop-up window using X11? I'm not to sure where to start. I just think it would be neat to do. So I was hoping someone out there had documentation on how to go about this, or if I was going to have to write/compile a program to do so.
Thank you!

At school, on an HP-UX or B.11.11 U 9000/785 system, my X11 root window is always set to 8-bit color, but all the child windows are 24-bit. The problem with this, is any background/wallpaper looks extremely ugly with the 8-bit color. Is there any way to make X starts with 24-bit color root window?... (0 Replies)

Hello,
Is there a way to force each window to popup in the original desktop when using multiple desktops?
The problem is I work on one desktop, then move to another one, and some windows that are loaded in the original desktop pops at the new desktop.
Any idea?

xdemineur
XDEMINEUR(6x) XDEMINEUR(6x)
NAME
xdemineur - X11 minesweeper game
SYNOPSIS
xdemineur [-v] [-display displayname] [-geometry geom] [-m mines]
DESCRIPTION
Xdemineur is a minesweeper game for the X Window System.
The object of this game is to find the location of the mines hidden in the minefield and to mark their location by placing a warning flag.
You have exactly as many flags as there are mines. The number of flags that remain to be placed is displayed in the top left corner of the
window and a timer is displayed in the top right corner.
The game is played using a three buttons mouse, as usual with the X Window System. The left button (button 1) is used to uncover the
square on which you click (hoping that a mine is not hidden there). The number displayed in an uncovered square indicates how many mines
are located around this square (for example, a 3 means that there are three mines within the 8 surrounding squares). The whole game relies
on the right use of these numbers. The right button (button 3) is used to place a flag on a square (this indicates that there is a mine
here). If you click again with the right button on a square that has a flag, the flag is changed into a question mark: this is useful if
you are trying to guess the possible location of some mine, you can use question marks to think about it. One more click with the right
button and the question mark disappears. Clicking with the middle button (button 2) on an uncovered square which has all its flags placed
around uncovers the surrounding cells which have no flags (this will save a lot of time).
Finally, to start a new game, just click on the yellow face above the minefield.
OPTIONS
-v Print out version number and copyright notice then exit.
-display displayname
This option specifies the name of the X server to use. See X(1).
-geometry geom
This option specifies the initial size and location of the window. See X(1). The size is expressed in number of columns times num-
ber of rows. The default is 30x16. The minimum number of columns is 12.
-m mines
This option specifies the number of mines in the minefield. If there are more mines than squares in the minefield, the default
mine number is used.
BUGS
Please report any bug you could find in xdemineur to <babafou@babafou.eu.org>. Also, you should tell me the customizations you may have
done, such as adding new functions to the game or making modifications to allow the game to run on your system.
