What I would ideally like is that, if jalv.select is already running and
you start another instance, the running instance opens its window (if
minimized). That would require some kind of IPC, so I'm not sure, if
this is something that's worth adding. As as simple hack, jalv.select
could just create a socket file at a known location, or it could use
DBus, which has the advantage that the "open jalv.select window" action
could be caleld from any generic DBus client.
Hi Chris
So I've added a named pipe to jalv.select, so that communication with
the app is possible.
Currently it understand "quit", "show" and "hide".
Syntax from bash is simple, for example:
echo show >jalv.select.fifo
echo hide >jalv.select.fifo
echo quit >jalv.select.fifo
It understand as well "exit", but that's for internal use.
I guess that will allow you to define your own keyboard shortcuts.
Regarding the intern Desktop HotKey's for show/hide, jalv.select will
now try <SHIFT>+ESCAPE first,
if that fail, it will try
<CONTROL><SHIFT>+ESCAPE.
If that fail as well, the KeyGrabber will be disabled.
Also, jalv.select takes care now to be the only instance of it's own, a
running instance will be presented, when you try to start a new one.
I hope this helps for a better cross Desktop integration.

But it would allow to define a keyboard shortcut to
open the jalv.select
window accross different desktop environments, since you could use the
feature of your preferred desktop to bind a progranm or script to global
shortcut.
What do you think?
Chris
