Anyway, there are two features I'd like to request:
1) I'd be nice to see clickable application titles to show up when hovering on launchers, two or more instances of the same application are opened and the composition is off. Just like the behavior implemented by default in the Dockbarx applet.
2) Can window previews be implemented when the metacity compositing feature is on (no compiz)?

Yesterday I've tried to clmpile Talika under Fedora 13, but when I've started "make", I've got this text at the end:
Quote:
/usr/bin/ld: xutils.o: undefined reference to symbol 'XSync'
/usr/bin/ld: note: 'XSync' is defined in DSO /usr/lib/libX11.so.6 so try adding it to the linker command line
/usr/lib/libX11.so.6: could not read symbols: Invalid operation
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
make[2]: *** [talika] Error 1
make[2]: Leaving directory `/home/philip/Downloads/talika-0.49/src'
make[1]: *** [all-recursive] Error 1
make[1]: Leaving directory `/home/philip/Downloads/talika-0.49'
make: *** [all] Error 2
Can you tell me where is the problem?

For quick fix, go under src/xutils.c and comment lines having XSync .
It is there for some erroneous conditions. If everything is fine, Talika will run fine.

I think you can hack around this error on make by going to talkika-0.49/src and editing the Makefile generated by running ./configure
./configure
cd src
vi Makefile
In the file src/Makefile, at the line TALIKA_LIBS be sure to add
-lX11 -lm -lXcomposite
after -lglib-2.0
cd back to talika-0.49 and run make again.
make
sudo make install
As I say, it then compiled fine for me (but, again, as you say, I may be wrong).
After this step, you need to run
sudo bonobo-activation-sysconf --add-directory=/usr/local/lib/bonobo/servers
as instructed.

Did you tried latest svn version? it allows you to change the icon of a launcher.
You can copy a desktop file, change its exe arguments and drag-drop to talika. It will create a launcher with custom arguments.

The most convenient solution would be to show the list of launchers in the "preferences" dialog and allow them to be customized/edited directly.
