# 2top

Provided is my Go rewrite, stup and brup are example scripts to raise 'st' and 'chromium' make these bindable

To compile run c++ totop.cpp -L/usr/X11R6/lib -lX11 -o totop

The shell script, id=$(xwininfo -name "st" | grep id: | awk "{ print \$4 }") && totop $id

Alternatively you can ommit the second line, and only use the third with the id if you know it
