I usally work with several virtual desktops, and have a very simple alarm (a pop-up window in Tcl/Tk) that shows up whenever a particular job has finished, no matter what desktop I am currently working.

Now what I would like is to click in this alarm window so that I will be automatically transferred to the desktop where I initially put the job. I put the jobs via scripts through Konsoles.

Let me explain with an example:
(1) I have a Konsole in desktop 1, and from here I submit a job and set an alarm.
(2) One hour later I'm working in say, desktop three, and there pops up the alarm telling me the job
has finished. My problem is that one hour later I don't remember from which desktop I submitted
the job. I usually work with 8 desktops, which makes it a pain to navigate looking for the Konsole.
(3) The holy grial ! => I click in the alarm window and I'm back to desktop 1.

I have never developed any application for DKE, so I have no clue as to how much sweat I have to put to set up a desktop switch in the alarm window.

Any suggestions where/how to start ??? Also, are there other forums where this post may also be appropriate? (I'm assuming this is one of them )
