A follow on to #119.
The idea is to have a key binding to send a window to a specific desktop rather than just up/down/left/right. Something like “send#”.

@joewing, How do I make a binding for this? I have the below bindings to switch desktops. Can I add a "Shift" to this and use that to move windows across desktops? I am using the latest jwm.

    <Key mask="4" key="Right">rdesktop</Key>
    <Key mask="4" key="Left">ldesktop</Key>
    <Key mask="4" key="Up">udesktop</Key>
    <Key mask="4" key="Down">ddesktop</Key>

This issue added the send# binding, which sends a window to a specific desktop identified by whatever number you select (having a mask of alt with the send# binding will allow you to press alt+5 to send to desktop 5).

I think you are interested in the sendl/r/u/d bindings, which send the window left/right/up/down.

Thank You. I actually needed send# itself. I pasted the wrong section here!

I have <Key mask="4" key="#">desktop#</Key>

The problem was that I was still using /bin/jwm while the latest was in /usr/local/bin/jwm.
