Hi,

Sorry, forgot to say try:

PREFIX : stumptray RET

or run lisp code in .stumpwmrc

(run-commands "stumptray")

Hi Michael,

I have tried as you suggested, I took the following steps:

1. clone your project from github, and then make it;
2. replace the old stumpwm with the made result from step 1;
3. add the following lisp code to .stumpwmrc:

(ql:quickload :xembed)
(load (merge-pathnames "stumptray.lisp"
             (merge-pathnames "test/"

               (asdf:component-pathname (asdf:find-system :xembed)))))

(I know this piece of code is just trying to find the file "stumptray.lisp" and load it, and I am sure this file exists in my quicklisp dist subdirectory)

4. then I run the command load-rc, there is a redifinition error about constant +IPV4-ZERO+, but I think it doest not matter a lot and I continued;

5. then the reloading succeeded without any other error, but there is still no icon on my mode-line or any other place.

So, is there something wrong, or I just need some other configurations?

Thanks in advance,
Kelvin

I have my own branch of stumpwm, in which patch is applied.

Small tutorial:
install quicklisp for your common lisp
clone https://github.com/filonenko-mikhail/stumpwm into ~/quicklisp/local-projects
in your ~/.stumpwmrc add

(ql:quickload :xembed)
(load (merge-pathnames "stumptray.lisp"
           (merge-pathnames "test/" (asdf:component-path (asdf:find-system :xembed))))

Lisp code is pseudo, so if you do not know common lisp, I will paste my ~/.stumpwmrc after 3 days.

Yes, my simple requirement is to show the dropbox icon at some place, like Ubuntu's right top corner.
But according to Dave's comment, seems there is no native implementation of stumpwm.
So do you have any good suggestions?

Thanks,
Kelvin

Hi.

Do you mean notification area (tray)?

2012/11/28 Kelvin Hu <address@hidden>

I use stumpwm, and I like it very much. But it seems that the mode line could only show text, I want to show my dropbox icon on mode line, is there a way to implement this?
PS: I have already tried another taskbar program -- tint2, it does show icon, but seems it could not perform well with stumpwm together.

Sorry to ask this question in the devel mailing list, since I could not find another mailing list for this kind of questions.
