I'm still learning about Afterstep, lemme see if I can describe it another way.
Although, I'm pretty sure you have said it's not possible
If I had 4 monitors, and each pointed to a different pane of my pager.
Is it possible for each monitor to have a different background?
not look or feel, just background.
if this isn't possible, is there any consideration to do add this in a
future release?
Although, I could have the pager have more then one desk, it'd be
preferable not to have it do that.
Also while, I'm here.
I thought I remember seeing, but not sure. But is it possible to have the
Pager in the Wharf?
