I'm coding a demon like program from Gambas on Ubuntu 13.10.
This is a GUI application which becomes visible when the user hits specific key.
Therefore, I don't want this program to appear on the task bar.
Is there a way I can bypass it? (Maybe from a Bash trick or a Gambas code?)
Thanks! :)
You need to add _NET_WM_STATE_SKIP_TASKBAR
atom to _NET_WM_STATE
- see 'Application window properties' part of emwh spec.
