    Cool

    Hi guys, your fellow programmer and webmaster Xenonic Rob here.
    Just a question - those of you who use ICQ will know how it docks itself against the side of the screen, and resizes all the maximized windows and the desktop around it (i.e. so when you maximize another window, it doesn't go over ICQ).
    Does anyone have some neat code extract on how to do this? I'd be really grateful if someone could help :-)

    I'll send you some code if you just add me on icq
    Use
    writing software in C++ is like driving rivets into steel beam with a toothpick.
    writing haskell makes your life easier:
    reverse (p (6*9)) where p x|x==0=""|True=chr (48+z): p y where (y,z)=divMod x 13
    To throw away OOP for low level languages is myopia, to keep OOP is hyperopia. To throw away OOP for a high level language is insight.

    Kedaman, any chance you could post that code here? I've been trying to figure that out for the past couple of days without too much luck... I could really use some help getting started.

    Thanks!
