PostPosted: Wed 25 May 2011, 09:40    Post_subject:  Simple Quake-Terminal alike script
Sub_title: because what the world needs is another quake-terminal script		  
Here's a quake-terminal script for Puppy, using the standard urxvt console. The only dependency that isn't common on Puppy is wmctrl, which can be found here: http://www.murga-linux.com/puppy/viewtopic.php?t=67987



Resolution Independent
Transparency used if available, urxvt psuedo-transparency used if not

Name this script "quake-terminal", and put it somewhere in your path, like /usr/local/bin . Needs to be made executable. Do not name the script rexquakeurxvt, that name needs to be unique to the console that this script opens.

Code:

#!/bin/sh
quakewindow=rexquakeurxvt

if [ "$(wmctrl -l | grep $quakewindow)" == "" ] ; then
  if [ "$(pidof xcompmgr)" != "" ] ; then
    exec urxvt -depth 32  +sb -fg White -bg rgba:0000/0000/0000/9999 -name $quakewindow &
  else
    exec urxvt -tr +sb -fg White -bg Black -sh 40 -name $quakewindow &
  fi
 
  dataline=$(wmctrl -d | grep '*')
  originX=$(echo "$dataline" | cut -d ' ' -f 11 | cut -d \, -f 1)
  originY=$(echo "$dataline" | cut -d ' ' -f 11 | cut -d \, -f 2)
  width=$(echo "$dataline" | cut -d ' ' -f 12 | cut -d \x -f 1)
  height=$(echo "$dataline" | cut -d ' ' -f 12 | cut -d \x -f 2)
   
  originXFramed=$((width/8))   
  targetWidthFramed=$(( width - $(( width/8*2)) ))
  targetHeight=$((height/2))   
   
  wmctrl -F -r $quakewindow -b add,hidden
  wmctrl -F -r $quakewindow -e 0,$originXFramed,$originY,$targetWidthFramed,$targetHeight
  wmctrl -F -r $quakewindow -b remove,hidden
  wmctrl -F -R $quakewindow
elif [ "$(xwininfo -name $quakewindow | grep IsViewable)" == "" ] ; then
  wmctrl -F -r $quakewindow -b remove,hidden
  wmctrl -F -R $quakewindow
else
  wmctrl -F -r $quakewindow -b add,hidden
fi


In ~/.config/openbox/rc.xml, add this to <applications> section for a better experience:

Code:

   <application name="rexquakeurxvt">
      <decor>no</decor>
      <skip_pager>yes</skip_pager>
      <skip_taskbar>yes</skip_taskbar>
      <iconic>yes</iconic>
      <desktop>all</desktop>
      <layer>above</layer>
   </application>


These are the keybindings i use, also found in rc.xml

Code:

    <keybind key="Pause">
      <action name="Execute">
        <command>quake-terminal</command>
      </action>
    </keybind>
    <keybind key="F11">
      <action name="Execute">
        <command>quake-terminal</command>
      </action>
    </keybind>

Its great that it uses standard urxvt console. Cool
