# Function to place Nightly windows by desktops after restore session.
# Nightly has long BUG https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=372650#c54 (created 2007-03-05!) which make hassle of windows!
# Function to place Firefox windows by desktops after restore session.
# Firefox has long BUG https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=372650#c54 (created 2007-03-05!) which make hassle of windows!
# I use at least 11 windows and it is very hard to place them on correct desktop each time. So I write that workaround.
#
# Partially idea borrowed from attempt https://github.com/zepalmer/script-vdr/blob/master/vdr, but I choose different approach:
# instead of periodically save window titles into file (which is very unstable because of many tabs in each) I just label each window with custom label
# by default match with desktop label (name).
#
# For set Nightly windows custom titles used extension (OpenSource): https://addons.mozilla.org/en-GB/Nightly/addon/window-titler/
# For set Firefox windows custom titles used extension (OpenSource): https://addons.mozilla.org/en-GB/Firefox/addon/window-titler/
#
# Now match is very simple - just one grep, but you may use regular expression or special symbols...
#
# Example:
# I have few desktops with names: Egais, DevOps, Home
# For Nightly windows I set tiltles accordingly (with extension) like "Home", then window title become: "[Home] Google - Mozilla Nightly"
# For Firefox windows I set tiltles accordingly (with extension) like "Home", then window title become: "[Home] Google - Mozilla Firefox"
# And it give me abbility understand on which desktop it should be placed.
# So I just call this function like:
# placeWindowOnDesktop Home
