Subject: How does kwin communicate?
X-MARC-Message: https://marc.info/?l=kde-core-devel&m=94665385810971

I am currently working on the knotify program again (extended version of
kwmsound).
This proggy works, but I work on adding native kwin support, so knotify can
react on WM messages like "shutdown", "new window", "iconify" and such.

chris@donald:~/CVS/kdebase/kwin > grep -in dcop *.cpp *.h
chris@donald:~/CVS/kdebase/kwin >

As you see kwin does not use DCOP, so how do I get those messages?
Looking at the kicker applets and plugins wasn't helping me.
