#Anthropic #ClaudeCode just helped me make fluxMoon --- my third #WindowMaker #DockApp for #Fluxbox (on #Linux, #Gentoo, in my case). Took about 10 minutes, but only because I was reading email also.

I love the old dock apps. been using them since the late 1990s. Have 7 now, used to be ~12.

My new ones are homage but for modern systems --- 64, 96, and 128px options, l/c/r mouse button options, config file support, and written in #Rust. So, I hope at least not horribly insecure?

#FLOSS

TIL/stumble about #rxvt's ›-dockapp‹-option. didnt know this, shiny!

Roll your own 64x64-#dockapp for #windowmaker, #fluxbox, #blackbox, ….
In full unicode-glory, works charmingly.
Best to use glyphsize-aliased bitmapfont for starters and set -geometry accordingly; use -b (inner border in px) to fine-tune.

#x11cp #x11 #archaic application.

This time, it's #xsclock which is a 56x56 #dockapp intended to be used in #afterstep's wharf module, but equally applies to #fvwmbuttons as well.

Originally written by Namio MATUDA, around 1999-Nov-24. The version I have here is 0.22

There is only one option `--day` which shows the day/month in the window.

Screenshots attached.
