About:
XMMS Weasel is a general plugin for XMMS. It automatically slides out XMMS from the screen if the mouse pointer leaves the XMMS window. As soon as the mouse pointer hits the screen edge, XMMS will slide back in.

[»] Couldn't make it work
by Duilio Protti - May 11th 2004 16:35:11

I could not make it work. I'm using Gnome 2.2 on RedHat 9, with
gtk+-1.2.10 and all other related things from the binary packages
which came with the distribution (including Metacity window
manager) except XMMS which is version 1.2.8, from XMMS site's packages.
I compile with no errors or warnings. I have installed on the right
place. I don't run any other plugin while testing. I don't run
any other app while testing. I have tested with different delay times.

The plugin is activated correctly, I guess. The terminal output is:

Weasel: xw_init()
Weasel: xw_init_signals() - Attached pointer leave/enter signal for mainwin
Weasel: xw_init_signals() - Attached pointer leave/enter signal for
playlistwin
Weasel: xw_init_signals() - Attached pointer leave/entersignal for
equalizerwin
Weasel: xw_init_signals() - All signals attached.

It does absolutely anything when I leave/enter with the mouse on any
window (I have probed with the main window only, and with the three
windows opened). Only if some XMMS window is clicked, then it is hidden,
and sometimes (randomly), also the gnome-panel.
If I start the plugin and then inmediately shutdown it, the three
XMMS windows appears on the left top corner.

I have send it a bug report to the authors, I hope this help.

Duilio.
