Avant Window Navigator

Introduction
From: Launchpad ''Avant Window Navigator (AWN/Awn) is a dock-like navigation bar for the linux desktop that positions itself at the bottom of the screen. It can be used to keep track of open windows and behaves like a normal window list.''

Installation
If you are running a stable arch and Awn has not been stabilized for it, you need to unmask it first. Issue as root:

Avant Window Navigator supports the following USE flags:
 * : Rebuilds the API documentation so that it is cross-referenced with other API documentation on your system, e.g., GTK+.
 * : Links Awn with the GNOME libraries.
 * : Links Awn with the Xfce libraries.
 * : Enables support for applets written in dev-lang/vala.
 * : Enable extra debug codepaths, like asserts and extra output. If you want to get meaningful backtraces, see http://www.gentoo.org/proj/en/qa/backtraces.xml

Check the default state of USE flags and enable flags that you need and then emerge this package:
