Thanks a lot @marcel-dempers
I tried this thing and it really worked out..
I will be always thankful to you for this script

thanks

Hello Marcel, thank you for the script! I am new to Linux and have a problem using devilspie, when I save your script in .devilspie/ and try to enter devilspie in the terminal, the terminal halts and doesn't output anything. Nor does vscode become transparent when i start it up.

Any idea what the problem might be?

thanks broo it's work

my guess is its running as a daemon. just means it will run until told by you or other software to stop.

you can hit ( ctr + c ) and get your command line back and the effects of the script will be functional. I will read more on devilspie to understand its functionality more and i suggest doing the same.

it showing Not an X11 Display
what to do??
