[openbox] openbox Digest, Vol 79, Issue 12

[Ranjan Maitra]

Thank you! I will try this!!

Also, if wbar is itself a dock, then can I dock the system tray on to that? My thinking is that things that require input from me should be on one side while others checking the health of the different aspects of the system (conky, clock) could be on the right?

Many thanks,
Ranjan
