[3ddesktop-dev] Re: 3ddesk --goto{left | right} does not exit

I've notice the same thing, but it's intermittent. About 1 out of every
3 or 4 times I do it, it exits as it should. I'm guessing it's a timing
thing....<time passes>... OK, actually, I'm sure it's a timing thing.

I have a script to flip to a certain window, and launch my e-mail
program if needed. It's launched when I double-click on my new mail
notification applet. If I am only 1 desktop away, it works every time.
If I am two desktops away, it works about 50% of the time. If I am 3 or
more desktops away, it always fails. It rotates to the desktop, but then
sits there waiting for me to hit <enter> to close out 3ddesk, so I can
actually see the desktop. I've double checked to make sure that I don't
have the "dontexit" option turned on.

Maybe how long to wait once switching is based off the zoom time, and if
you don't zoom the time is way too short and gets missed?
