SOLVED -> How to stop "You will lose data" message?

[fixit]

Thanks, xkill is pretty handy.

How would a key combo work if there is more than one window ?

[Semme]

In your jwmrc-personal, something similar where the "A" represents your "alt" key..

Code: Select all

<Key mask="A" key="x">exec:xkill</Key>

[Semme]

Well, what's the scoop here.. Were you able to successfully trigger xkill?

[fixit]

Code: Select all

When run with no command line arguments, the program displays a special cursor (usually a crosshair or a skull and crossbones) and displays a message such as

    Select the window whose client you wish to kill with button 1 ...

If a non-root window is then selected, the server will close its connection to the client that created that window, and the window will be destroyed.

You just put the skull on the program you want to kill.

Uh.. I meant by editing your jwmrc-personal?

[fixit]

I don't have that file.

[Semme]

Sure ya do! Tell me it's not among the ones listed >> ls -l ~/.jwm

[fixit]

I wonder why Thunar is not showing it ?

I found it.

Just noticed the .jwm directory.

Then set this up and enjoy easier computing.

I am overwhelmed by the responses.

sarcasm noted - no one else is surprised - did you re-read your exceedingly vague "question"?

Is there a way to stop the "You will lose data message." when I want to kill a process ?

- I had to check his other posts to see if he was some kind of bot that posted chunks of other questions with many replies and continually added additional chunks from it to get enough "legitimate" posts to post spam in all sections of the forum (yes they actually exist)

[fixit]

Code: Select all

<Key mask="A" key="x">exec:killall -9 firefox</Key>

This works too and eliminates a keystroke.

I have one of those in place for when it hasn't exited properly and continues to run in the background.
