Hi all,

I was wondering if anybody out there knew how to open an application with a specific window name or id. To be specific, I'm writing a set of scripts that play various media files though mplayer, and I want mplayer open with either a specific window name, or an id. Or even someway to get the window id on startup. That would be a great help!

From looking myself...the closest I've come to finding a solution is the x11 command "xwininfo," which returns a great deal of info about the window including it's id...but I need the name of the window for that to work...and since there will be multiple mplayers open at one time, it would be most helpful if I had a way to either set a name to mplayer on startup, or get/set it's id on startup.

Thanks for all the help!
