What is the harbour and how is it used?

0

Harbour is pekwm’s way of supporting dockapps, special small applications that usually display things like system information or the status of your email inbox. It’s essentially the same thing you might know as a dock or a wharf. The harbour is not a KDE/GNOME systray for notification icons. If you want notification icons in the harbour, you need to find a dockapp that does this for you. The harbour needs to be enabled at compile time. When you are doing the ./configure -phase of the pekwm compile, you can use the –enable-harbour option to enable it. Harbour should show up in the features list on pekwm –info. If a dockapp doesn’t go into the harbour even you have it enabled at compile time, you should see if the application has an option to start it “withdrawn”.
