For former blackbox users:
- You can use your old blackbox configuration file too. Just copy
.blackboxrc to ~/.fluxbox/init . The same goes for menu file.
- You can also use the Blackbox themes in Fluxbox. Fluxbox has a few
extra styleoption for the tabs but they don't have to be specified.
- The keys file is no longer compatible with bbkeys. There's a
convertkeys script at http://fluxbox.sourceforge.net/ that will
convert the bbkeys format to the fluxbox format.
A few extra notes about the new features:
2002-01-11 11:59:54 +00:00
- To disable tabs and/or iconbar just change it in configure menu.
2002-12-29 10:33:49 +00:00
- To work with tabs, use the third mouse button to drag a tab to
another tab. This will group the two windows together.
- With 'Sloppy Window Grouping' turned on (in your configure menu),
you can drop the tabs anywhere on the target window to group
windows together.
- The 'Maximize over Slit' option means that maximized windows will not
stop at the outside border of the slit, and will instead cover it.
- In the init file, the session.screen0.rootCommand: option will
override the rootCommand option in a theme, keeping your background
the same, no matter what the theme says it should be.
