display geometry when resizing with keyboard

[Michael M. Moore]

After a long and now regretted layoff, I'm back to using Openbox,
which seems better than ever.

My question is about one thing I miss from Metacity, which is the
display of a window's geometry when using the keyboard to resize a
window.  In Metacity, ALT+F8 allows you to use the arrow keys to
resize a window left, right, up or down.  I made some keychains in
Openbox to mimic this behavior, like so:

    <keybind key="A-F8">
      <keybind key="Left">
        <action name="ResizeRelative">
	  <left>10</left>
	</action>
      </keybind>
      <keybind key="Right">
	<action name="ResizeRelative">
	  <right>10</right>
	</action>
      </keybind>
      <keybind key="Up">
	<action name="ResizeRelative">
	  <top>10</top>
	</action>
      </keybind>
      <keybind key="Down">
	<action name="ResizeRelative">
	  <bottom>10</bottom>

This works, except I don't get the geometry display and I don't know
how to enable it.  I get the geometry when I use the mouse to resize
the window (by grabbing a corner and dragging).  Is it possible to get
the geometry when resizing with the keyboard, or are keychains not the
best method to use to accomplish keyboard-driven window resizing?
(I'm not wedded to the A-F8-arrow method, I just set it up that way
because it's what I was used to.)

Thanks,
Michael M.
