R Core,
*Great* to see this bubble up in the NEWS aggregation:
2.15.1 patched NEW FEATURES
The X11() window gains an icon: the latter may be especially useful on
Ubuntu's Unity interface.
The WM_CLASS should be set in circumstances where the Window Manager failed
to make use of Xt settings.
As you may know, I also applied these changes by Philip (CC'ed) to the
Debian
package and am enjoying them tremendously. This is useful beyond Unity -- I
am currently (at work) at a Windows 7 box and even its taskbar now shows an R
logo when I send an x11() plot device over ssh.
You may need to also include two more files: an icon png file, and a
.desktop file. I can help off-list, as can Philip who guided me through this
too.
Dirk, glad to see the "delta" between the Debian build and R
minimized again
