Well... :-) I've been using Fluxbox for quite some time in a quite
distant past, and I remember my confusion back then, about this thing
they called "slit". It turned out to be a dock; I've yet to find out
why they call it a slit.
So I just figured I might be mistaking the Openbox dock that contains
the dockapps with something else. And, of course, I could've been
missing something, I don't know, some add-on that offers the
functionality I'm missing. Moreover, there's a screenshot among, ehm,
the screenshots, that contains a docked IM-client in a smaller square
than my dockapps.
Enough babbling already; thanks for your reply!
Tom
