   6 What is Docker?
   7
   8 Docker is a docking application (WindowMaker dock app) which acts as a system
   9 tray for KDE3 and GNOME2. It can be used to replace the panel in either
  10 environment, allowing you to have a system tray without running the KDE/GNOME
  11 panel.

  14 What window managers can I use Docker with?
  15
  16 I wrote and designed Docker to work with Openbox 2, but it should work fine in
  17 any window manager that supports WindowMaker dock apps.

  20 Why don't my KDE3 system tray icons show up?
  21
  22 Docker requires a KDE3 compliant window manager to handle KDE3 system tray
  23 icons, and since it is a docking application, the window manager needs to also
  24 support WindowMaker Dock Apps. The only window manager that meets these
  25 requirements to my knowledge is:
  26  - Openbox 2 (http://icculus.org/openbox)
  27 If you know of any other window managers that support the KDE3 hints for the
  28 system tray and docking apps (i.e. that docker works in), please let me know so
  29 I can add them to this list, and test docker out in them!

  31
  32 Why don't my GNOME2 system tray icons show up?
  33
  34 I don't know! Email me and let me know what application isn't working. (Don't
  35 you dare email me about a GNOME1 application! :)

  38 Who wrote Docker?
  39
  40 Me, of course. That is, Ben Jansens. I can be reached at <ben@orodu.net>. I am
  41 the founder and currently the project head of sorts for the Openbox project.

  45 || INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS ||
  46 ===============================
  47
  48 To install this application, simply do the following:
  49
  50 % make
  51 (as root)
  52 # make install
  53
  54 You can change a couple of things in the Makefile if you want to:
  55 PREFIX defines where the program will be installed to.
  56 XLIBPATH defines where your libX11.so is located. If it is not on the standard
  57          /usr/X11R6/lib path, then you will have to change this.
