StayOnTop + XMMS ================ I still use the XMMS media player [1] for media playback (the version 1, not the 2.x) as it is well supported under the IRIX. Usually for MP3s but also to listen the radio [2] (oh, I have been listening the ORF Radio Vien for more than 20 years! Of course, for the most time not via the Internet). Until recently I have used the XMMS in the "stay on top" mode - there was a tiny bar with controls near the right top corner of the screem. It was set up this way before many years and I thought that it is comfortable. Recently I have tried to change this behaviour - now do I more with playlist and it is not comfortable to have so large thing always visible. Now it is a normal window (I just removed the StayOnTop statement from definition of xmms behaviour in the .fvwm2rc file). Surprisigly, I don't miss the immediate availability of basic XMMS controls and I have found this setup much more comfortable. Hm, and this is probably the biggest change in my computing setups for 2017. So, HAPPY NEW YEAR !!! References: [1] http://www.xmms.org [2] http://wien.orf.at
