For KDE slitsupport: (Allows kde tray icons to be placed in the fluxbox slit)
./configure --enable-kde
To disable tabs and/or iconbar just change it in configure menu.
For Gnome support:
./configure --enable-gnome
To use your own configuration:
Create a directorory, in your homedir, called .fluxbox
and copy: init, keys and menu from fluxbox datapath.
Dont forget to change session.menuFile and session.titlebarFile
in the file init.
Use ./configure --help to see the full list of options
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.
If there isn't any format for the tab in the theme then
the tab will have the same theme as the titlebar.
The keys config file can be selected in the file init:
session.keyFile: <filename here>
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:
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:
- To disable tabs and/or iconbar just change it in configure menu.
- 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.
