Re: [RP] new fdump structure may affect scripts

[Kevin Geiss]

so for a concrete example, say I had this silly, contrived ratpoison 
frame set up:

0 0 0 1152 788 10485774 30,1 0 788 1152 76 14680069 14,

under the new scheme it would be like this?

(frame :number 0 :x 0 :y 0 :width 1152 :height 788 :window 10485774 
:last-access 30)
(frame :number 1 :x 0 :y 788 :width 1152 :height 76 :window 14680069 
:last-access 14)
